I'm sorry, but there is no reason at all anybody should pay 2 to 3 THOUSAND dollars for a PS-3, much less the 10,000 that someone's listing on ebay as a "buy it now" price.
Stupidity on the part of those that buy for the ridiculously overpriced resale price, and outright *greed* on the part of those buying it to turn right around and resell it.
it's greed to be sure. but i admit it would be hard to pass up on that kind of investment turnaround. besides, i doubt anyone who would CONSIDER paying 10,000 is actually hardly hurting for money so it's not even like they've been "swindled" out of their savings.
no, i couldn't do it, but if i had just bought one, and someone offered me $10,000 for it, oh hell yes, i'd sell it.
