Ebay insanity has started

Sold one of my Premiums this afternoon for over $1100 on eBay. I've already received payment.

Just to give you an idea of the type of people paying these prices, the buyer is a grandmother buying the system for her grandkids... for Christmas! She didn't need it now; she even told me not to ship for another week because they would be in town and she didn't want UPS/FedEx to ruin the surprise. LOL.

She was so unbelievably sweet, though.

It was JUST a premium? And thats USD? Holy shit. Id be ecstatic if mine gets anywhere near that much.
 
Yep, Premium only; no games, accessories, or other extras.

Party's over, though -- I've seen a few end deep into the $600's already.
 
The funny thing is that I now want to buy another one. I wanted to keep it, but I couldn't justify turning down the once-every-five-years megaprofit. Now the hype is killing me (not to mention my unopened copies of PDZ and PGR3 staring me in the face).

Anyone within 50 miles of NYC wants to sell their Premium for $600? :D I will seriously come get it tonight.

will be right back up there tomorrow when disappointed people get back from black friday shopping, guaranteed.
 
Im selling the extra 360 I got at the Microsoft launch party along with gift bag. Hoping to make enough profit to buy a cheap hdtv :D

They're creeping back up. Quite a few selling out now in the 800-900 range. Most people did a 1 day auction when they bought theirs, so the highest spike is over. I'm sure you can still make a decent profit. And they'll be even higher Friday night.

And Darko, you'll comfortably break a grand with that bundle.
 
Yeah, it seems like there is an ebb and flow to eBay value of the systems. They say that if you want the most activity, you should make an auction that ends on a Sunday or Monday night.
 
Any look at the ebay numbers for systems sold/currently available? When I search for xbox 360 under completed items, it shows 43000 (of course not all of these are sold because of various issues, but most probaby are). Then for current listings I see 17,000. So that makes 60,000 consoles on sale on ebay. What are the launch numbers again? 400,000 or so? So that makes 15% on ebay. Pretty high number.


Core prices seem to be getting better. Under $500, maybe you will be able to snag one for $400 soon.
 
Hmm, I dunno, but with Black Friday, the prices are soaring again. $800-$900 for Premium's it seems. I'm expecting them to rocket up on the last week before Christmas as well.

I listed one the other day. I was going to just keep it, but I couldn't pass up the profit, especially after the grand I just dropped on Black Friday deals.

What are you guys doing about bidders with "0" feedback? Somebody bid on mine with zero feedback and I searched to see what else he was bidding on, and he is currently bidding on 5 or 6 360 machines. I cancelled it and wrote that "0" feedback users need to contact me before bidding.

I usually leave it. Worse comes to worse, you can do a 2nd chance offer if they don't pay up.
 
When I sold the core I had, the winner had a 3 feedback; he paid immediately, so you never know, some of these 0 guys could have registered just to buy a 360, ya never know.
