Highest one sold at $565.55........what stupid person bought it for that price, SERIOUSLY did it have Sarah Palin's signature on it or something!

So when they sell out, they can take advantage.

Thats good but that still doesn't prove anything as for if it will outsell the 360. I know it will not outsell the Wii for sure cause its a beast even at its current price point.

@Wii_Master

I'm not trying to prove that

what this does prove is that dolphins are more intelligent than humans!

People need to be patient and wait a few weeks and spend the extra 265 on games and an extra controller.

dolphins, lab rats and some high intensity bactium are proven by this, IMO.

Adarthdevidem01 wow i guess you weren't trying to prove that after all and your evidence that humans are dumber than dolphins is very accurate. Trust me cause why would anyone buy a 565 dollar slim when they can buy it for 262 dollars less in less than a week. Also if they want a slim that bad import it from somewhere it is out and if they can't then buy a 80gig for 299 and if they want more than 80 gig than get 160 gig which means yuo get a ps3 when you want it (right now, more than 120gig slim and 162 dollars less. seriously people..

They say a sucker is born everyday. This price listing lends credence to that.

they aat most they have to wait a week for new shipment

Lol, just lol.
