15,000 in one month on ebay eh. Wouldn't that mean people want to get rid of it?

The overwhelming majority purchased it specifically to sell it for a profit.

The people who sold it because they tried it and didn't like it are in the minority by a substantial margin. 

Interesting spin work though.

 

 

 Do you really make a profit reselling a console for 269$ that you bought for 250$ ?

Factor in Ebay's take and I hardly think those people are really making any cash...

 

The average price may include used or broken units.

Frankly, I'm happy the profit margins are way down.  It's about time people can't profit reselling the product on ebay -- it's better for people to buy it at a fair price.
