exactly.

I've been seeing a lot of this type of stuff posted all over the net, there was one that got bidded to like 8 million or something. It's basically people who are pissed about what these sellers are trying to do and they're just messing with the auctions.

yup...
and iirc, if your auction gets done like that you have ways to not have to pay all the ebay fee's and crap... but i could be wrong.

Screw ebay, Sony can sell the first batch of PS3s for $5000 and then drop it down to $600 after Christmas. Profit!

I mean, seriously. Somewhere out there, there's a good-hearted little kid, who doesn't come from a well-to-do family, who's getting screwed out of a righteous Christmas gift.

I admit, I'm pretty high-strung and have broken some **** in the past out of frustration, but never something that expensive.

I dunno, I came from a not quite well-to-do family, and they sure as hell couldn't afford to purchase $600 presents for me.
