eBay proves demand by people willing to use eBay has been met.
I wouldn't use eBay even if it was $100 under retail price.


Then you are very misinformed. I've been buying from Ebay for years and no troubles at all.

PS4's are Ebaying 75-100 over retail.

Well considering this one is currently selling for $130 more than RRP, I would consider your statement false.

Market conditions outside of US likely different. US received bulk of product. A small market like Australia received far smaller quantities and will take a bit longer ofcourse.

No they aren't.

 

I just watched a few pages finish. Only one obvious fake $1000 sale from a seller with very few ratings sold over retail.

ebay horrible??? why??? never had any problem with ebay since they exist



I was in Gamestop yesterday at the mall in Augusta, Ga. I was looking at random games, debating on getting Splinter Cell for the Wii U and the middle aged chick that worked there came to me trying her best to sell me an Xbox One. I figured those things should be selling themselves, right? I told her that I want one but not until it has some games.

I don't know about the PS4 (and I wouldn't be surprised if the same thing happens) but I think the Xbox One is due for a massive slump in sales. We'll find out in a few weeks, eh?

1st/3rd one was from ~2hrs ago, showing how far back you had to go.. how many unsold or under $400 did you pass?

2nd one has zero bids. It didnt' sell.

You're sorta right, there are a couple that did sell for a bit above retail... excluding taxes.

However, those people are idiots as there are FAR more selling under $400 all around those.

My point still stands.



I'm sorry but your analysis is cray without factoring in how many consoles are available on EBAY.
