Japan wasn't thrilled about the 360.

BUY IT NOW FOR $500,000.00

Wrong. "buy it now" is not allowed on ANY PS3 auction on eBay. New rules. Read the paper.

i do not recieve a paper, but why is the buy it now not allowed?

Explosive American · Post by **Explosive American** » Sat Nov 18, 2006 9:51 pm

Because you can set the buy it now price outrageously high, and some other reason I forgot.

ok, that makes sense. thanks

edit:

at 8pm today the target in my town started letting people "camp" out for the wii. it is now 10:20 pm. the police have been called twice, theres over 100 people in line (only 69 in stock) and the line for the ps3 was 15 people max. i guess i have to wait for the next shipment to come before i get one.

I asked the Guy at Best Buy about the whole No BUY NOW On Ebay for the PS3, Sony apparently struck a deal with them saying that for 90 days after release, Buy Now is restricted.

Doesn't playstation 3 have blue ray or somehting?

I think that's the only reason why I'd buy it.

Yeah it does. But that's not necessarily a reason to buy it seeing as HD-DVD is cheaper and will probably win the format war.

many of Sony's formats are either failures or in the process of failing. The same fate awaits Blu-Ray, IMO.

Yeah, out of the 21 (or thereabouts) formats they have put out, the 1/4" Floppy has been the only one to become the de-facto standard.

I got my Wii this morning... I was #14... waited outside for 9 hours.

I called my buddy and he brought an Xbox and TV to me, we were playing Halo out infront of WalMart and ended up running through the entire Halo 2 campaign out there in Co-op.

I had fun out there and the 9 hours were so worth the Wii.
