For the PS3 launch I bought a PS3 from another ebayer that had a pre order at $1,000.00 and immediately resold it for $1,600.00, and finally bought mine to keep last september when prices came down to 500 with 5 free movies and a free remote control. It was very risky what I did, cause Sony made sure there were enough consoles available at launch and prices fell even under retail price 2 or 3 days after the launch!!!
I managed to get 2 Wiis in Amazon the day they were launched, I kept one and resold the other for a little over $500, so my Wii was practically free of charge.
To me this is plain and good old capitalism and the only way to keep my wife of my back for wasting money on video games.
