Halo 3 on Ebay

[Fillibuster]

Apparently someone in AU got their hands on an early copy of Halo 3 and put it up on Ebay. Hope the winner doesn't plan on going on Live with it...

I can't believe he set a limit on the amount. He couldn't made a shitton of money off that. Like, thousands, I bet.

[the poe collector]

Why would anyone pay thousands of dollars for a game that's out in like two weeks?

I do think he could've gotten more than $124 for it.

He should never have put it up on eBay. Go through Craigslist or create a web page for it. eBay removes anything any company demands.

Agreed, as far as games go he would have made a killing, but shit people are paying $130 MSRP for a helmet, I guarantee they would have payed more on ebay for a two week headstart on the game...

I work for MLG. I know a number of kids who make thousands of dollars a year playing Halo 2. To get a 2 week headstart on the competition, they would easily fork out a thousand bucks.

[the poe collector]

Since you work for MLG, do you really think two weeks would that make much of a difference?

I'd think it might give them a headstart for a while, but then eventually other skilled players would be able to catch up.

You don't realize how competitive these kids are.

Its like, if Barry Bonds had a two week headstart over the competition on a new steroid supplement.

That's how these kids think.

[Fillibuster]

Yeah they are crazy good (atleast from what I can tell watching it on TV). I wish I could be that skilled at games, I just don't have the kind of time they do, or the skills.

[Cream Filling]

yeah, some of those dudes are crazy into halo
they might sell their soul off to buy the game early.

hahahahhaha love the bonds comment and yeah those mlg dudes are obsessed.

[r33hash]

Well, if you were able to sign a 250,000 dollar contract over 3 years to play a game you love, would you really even call yourself obsessed?

Anyway, point made.

If I was a rich bitch, I'd spend a shitton of money to get a copy of Halo 3 early. I won't lie.

[Birakon]

to get it early? i would pay maybe....10 bucks over retail.....if that included shipping, i can wait 2 weeks.
