VG, I have no problem with you.  My original comment was meant to be a completely innocent jab and you blew it way out of proportion.  (Perhaps because you knew I was right?)  I just find it funny that you're acting all high and might about giving fifty percent of the profits to someone who's doing all the work; financing charges are usually around the 10% - 20% range, not the 50% range.

Also, there's no need to resort to childish name calling.  Last time I checked, that is a ban-able offense.
Why must all things be so bright? Why can things not appear only in hues of brown! I am so serious about this! Dull colors are the future! The next generation! I will never accept a world with such bright colors! It is far too childish! I will rage against your cheery palette with my last breath!

How about harassing someone like you are towards me? I stick by what I said about you because I feel it is the truth, you are being condescending, insulting not only me but my family. So if the moderators want to ban me, fine, but I hope you go down right along with me. It isn't a fincancing charge anyway, like I freaken said they were going to do it FOR NOTHING, but I felt like giving them 50% of the profits.

Not to mention the fact that my ebay account is being used, and I am doing everything post launch including packing, shipping, fees from both paypal and ebay and dealing with potential risk involved with non-paying buyers, or even the market dropping out from under me.

Speaking of ebay, do they require the 50 feedback points and that other nonsense to sell the actual PS3?  Are you allowed to sell more than one console on ebay?  My roommate and I are planning to camp out, but neither of us would satisfy the presell requirements.

Ah great question, from what I understand the 50 feedback is ONLY for preorders (so people don't get ripped off), after the system is out I think you can list your auction anyway you want. But since this is a high priced item you may want to use an account with quite a bit of positive feedback (mine is over 300) and make sure you include the receipt along with a name label of your ebay name.

If you don't want to get harrassed for scamming someone, don't post about it.

If you don't want to get banned, refrain from harrassing anyone.

I take it this all directed at me? So now I'm a scammer, talk about an insult and from a staff member too.

It was obviously directed at both you and vudu.  Just chill guys.

I'm locking.  If you would like to discuss this topic again, feel free to start another topic and don't get so personal in it.
