Audie, I read this on Black Friday web site.
No, no PS3 here. I have the PS2 and I barely use it. MAN-go boughtit for me years ago becuase I am in love with Snake from Metal Gear. I have yet to finish that game. The only use it gets is when my nephew is here.

When they come out with virtual reality games, then I will buy one again.:funn:

For anyone who is looking to purchase a PlayStation 3, but doesn?t want to wait in line for the chance to purchase one, Costco.com will be selling them online beginning 8:00am PST on Friday, November 17th.

This item will be available for purchase on costco.com on Friday, November 17, 2006 at approximately 8:00 a.m. Pacific Time. The item will be prominently displayed on the homepage of costco.com until it is sold out.
Due to an extremely limited supply, we can accept orders from current Costco members only on a first come, first served basis, with a limit of one unit per household. The Costco warehouses do not have units available at this time.


Supply is limited, so I would expect Costco.com to be very slow beginning around 7:59:30 when everyone starts refreshing their pages like madmen.

Sell them on EBay! And then take the profits to buy him the big guns. Smile sweetly and say Honey, it was really no trouble. :biggrin:

Good luck getting your hands on one.:blink: Yesterday morning here in St. Louis people were setting up tents in front of Wal-Marts, Best Buys, etc. during a torrential downpour and freezing winds so that they could be first in line when they go on sale. Can't remember when that is....Friday morning? A couple of kids were planning on buying them to resell at a profit....pretty crummy in IMHO.

Hope you find one for Mr. Audie!

They are being sold on Ebay. They are going anywhere from $1400 up to $3000. Some of these are presale bidding. One had 36 bids. Hope my son doesn't see that. He is a video game system nut. His wife won't buy that for him that is for sure.

Look at Audies' # of posts and look at mine. They did not increase.:idontno:
I think it may be if you repost within a certain time frame.

I think each of your posts maintains a running total.

Daughter wants the Nintendo Wii for Christmas instead of the new Playstation. I'm on an Amazon wait list.

She also wants an LV Daumier Speedy. That won't be a challenging game -- just a matter of spending $.
