    This is pure madness - really makes me wish I preordered one - sell it for a similar price and buy one after christmas....along with a **** off LCD HD TV and surround systum..

    If you check bid history it'll show how many people were willing to blow a fortune just to get one. that patrick guy must have been gutted..

    Don't forget - thats sterling price..http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8238427923

    EDIT: ahh crap - didn't see the other thread on this. "Do you really want a 360?" - sorry mods.

    There is something very suspicious about that auction.... Odds are seller and buyer are the same person. The selller was possibly using a second (maybe even third as well )account to jack up the price.


    A couple of hundred over retail... fair enough. Double... maybe but three X the price??

    This reeks..........

    ... of auction wrecking maybe ?

    Its common enough on ebay for false bidders to jack up the prices of items where they think sellers are gouging and then refuse to pay. Happened last christmas to people selling PS2s..
