If you bought a PS3 would you sell it on eBay?
I spent some time talking to people in the middle of the night last night and this morning waiting in line to get their hands on the coveted PlayStation 3. If you weren't in line or about two days chances are you didn't have much of a chance of getting one.
Many I talked to planned to sell them for a markup on eBay. I can't say that I blame them given how much they are going for. But some I talked to were disappointed that some who really want a PS3 and waited in line for one won't get one because someone else is selling it to the highest bidder. What do you think, is it free market enterprise or taking advantage of the situation? 2 comments from 2 users

"This is beyond insulting. This is beyond ridiculous. It is farcical. With the Playstation 2, we ascribed the spotty launch supply to monstrous intent. We were young men, though, and young men often feel the weight of unaccountable oppressors bearing down on them. Speaking today, it seems clear to me that Sony would not want to launch under these conditions if they had any choice in the matter. Not with this anemic supply, now reaped by speculators. Not with these titles. But they have done it, singing all the while, making a stupid pageant of the whole affair with their petty sniping. Well, you have not succeeded, not at anything laudable. You've kept young people in out in the elements for days through your ineptitude, this is true, but that is worth negapoints - a reverse scoring method exclusively for jackasses that starts at zero, and actually goes down from there."
