I hate when people say that the sellers on ebay are screwing people. ITS AN AUCTION!!! You have to bid on the price, nearly every single Wii on there started at $0.99 or $250 (for the inexperienced ebay sellers who don't realize that it will still sell for $350-425 regardless of the starting price).

Consumers are picking their own price. If they are too lazy to get up early and stand in front of a store to find stock, then they can pay more and casually buy it on ebay. No one is getting screwed.

I plan on doing the same thing this weekend. I am going to go to a few stores early, get 2-3 Wii's and sell them on Ebay in one day to make an quick $200-300. I am helping the lazy and making some extra money on the side. It's not like I'm getting the product in a shady way that excludes these ebay shoppers. They had the exact same opportunity to go early as I do. They choose not to and then choose to spend more on the same thing.
