I got one from costco.com

Only took 4 hrs, but I ended up with a email confirmation and order number...

Now, lets see if it actually ships on Monday, and I get it in my hands.

THEN, lets see what the Ebay market looks like...

I find it kinda stupid that people would pay so much for a controller that is pretty much the same as an old ps1 controller, except it's wireless

What time did you place your order? I heard that alot of people couldn't even get on Costco's site this morning.

I was on from about 7:45 to 12:00. The whole time I was working with crashes left and right. I got it in my cart, and it was just a battle to get through all the steps. Just kept crashing.

when the site went down at 11:30am for the 2nd time (completely down), I waited to see if it would come back on. I nearly gave up, but persisted. i kept hitting f5, and bam, it was back, I logged in, and my ps3 was still in the cart, I was so excited, i forgot to check faster shipping, and within 20 seconds I finished out... 3 mins later, I had a confirmation email.

If they don't back out, then I'm set.

At 1:50pm, they emptied the carts of people still trying to get through the checkout process, thus ending all attempts to finish what people started earlier that morning.

werd.

Seems that Ebay's market prices have fallen down to about the $1500 range. But it could be that people are simply sleeping and not bidding right now. I'm not sure how to mazimize on profits here: Sell asap, or wait a little bit into Dec.

You should wait until at least a week after Thanksgiving. There's too many people trying to sell them right now.

That's what I'm thinking.

Besides, I don't think I'll actually have it in my hands until the week of the Nov 26th.
