piston hasn't posted in a while, wonder if he is getting nervous about not making as much monies as he thought?

Eh i dunno, i just watched 4 ps3's go on e-bay for $1000

Also, It has been confirmed that BOTH of the ps3's that were sold at the wal-mart I was gonna buy one have been defective, and overheat

And they were told to expect steady shipments from black friday till 2nd quarter of 07

he said he was going to sell two locally for $1500 each, so i bet he will make a little more than $1500.. but im thinking $5k is going to be pretty tough.

He doesnt even have any listed on ebay right now, he said he was going to wait for a while until the prices go back up some.

Yeah... I actually have a couple pending sales right now for a nice engagement rings.

I am setting up a meeting with a person at a jeweler to get their ring appraised. It's a 2.5 carat princess cut (is that a cut ? I know nothing) with white gold. If it's worth 2 g or over, I am trading ONE ps3 for it.

Another person sent me an e-mail offering a 3 thousand surround sound system for trade. I e-mailed him back asking for the model #. He wants to trade ONE ps3.

That is 5 gs right there lol. I could sell the rest and just break even cash wise or **** near close, and have a few things i really need (engagement ring is BIG).

I've been offering trades on Craigs List.

You are taking that ring from one dealer to another right?

Wouldnt be to hard for them to take a $400 ring and tell ya its worth $3000, just be careful

my friend works at an ebgames and their ps3 overheats horrible after only 30mins and they have to shut it down. Its enclosed in that plastic case but still. He also said next shipment isn't for a very very long time. I didn't read the other 29 pages btw, didn't feel like it, so sorry if i repeated something //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/uhoh.gif.c07307dd22ee7e63e22fc8e9c614d1fd.gif

The person HAS the ring... I am going to meet then at a dealer of my choice..

Yeah I know lol. I have NO IDEA about jewlery so I figure it's best that way.

I gotta show a picture to my girlfriends friend first, make sure the rings not butt ugly.

 

[97cavy 10+ year member]

yeah, ive also personally had the display model freeze on me twice , but I take it with a grain of salt since it is in a case with no ventaltaion really, and gets played near non stop

to pistons, the ring man remember 2 things no matter what they say at the jewelers. 1) the 4C's (color, carat, clarity, and cut) make sure your girlie likes princess(square) cut rings. color d,e,f are colorless(good), carat you already know, and clarity is the most important. my fiance's ring is sapphire center stone with diamonds on the side and while the sapphire is only .85ct it's a 6,000 dollar sapphire due to quality. if that ring is truly a 2.5Ct princess cut diamond, it's worth upwards of 11g's depending on quality, remember diamonds aren't like all of womens other needs, quality beyond quantity trust me //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif.

to the guy at ebgames saying no shipments he might want to check his sources. sony has confirmed on several occasions now that 600,000 possibly more ps3's will be in the US by years end. they have a goal of 1.5million total before 1/1/07.
