My question is this; Who will have enough money on launch day to buy the 360? Because if you can't buy it day one i think you sould get bumped from the first shipment, it seems fair to me, heck if you wanted a 360 bad enough to pre-order you better have the money come launch. That just my opinion, i have 721.00 down to cover premium systym, extra controller 4 games, batery pack, plug and play.

maby we could make a thread wer people who arent gonna be able to cover their preorders could meet up with people near them to give them the preorder, maby they could even make some money off it.

Yeah thats the problem, if you dont come with the money on launch day they'll put you on 2nd or 3rd shipment. Althought this sounds unfair, its the fair thing to do. I have enought money to buy the premiumsystem, kameo, PDZ, quake 4, and something else, but im going to walmart

i dident preorder, but i found out my best buy is getting 80 and my school schedule lets me have study hall 1st period every 5 daysw. i looked at a calendar and launch day i start school at 9 am. so im showing up at best buy at 3am.

well you can hope for 80 systems, but at this point i'd just have to believe you have been talking to the wrong people, don't get me wrong i'd love it if some stores were getting that many but ive talked to my managers and well be lucky if we get 20 last that they heard

Ive got 2 premium systems, 2 copies of PGR3 and 1 copy COD2 paid off. Im going to put one of the cosoles and PGR3 on eBay and see what I can get for it. Im hoping to make a couple hundred off of it, if things go my way maybe even double the price but it probably wont happen, who knows though.

I've been reading a lot about people getting bumped up. It's very interesting to hear that those people are the ones who've paid off their preorder. I'm gonna go to my ebgames and do that tomorrow. The guy there asked if I "would you like to pay it off, or just the deposit," in a suggestive manner, but I just went with the deposit and the replacement warranty. I guess I couldn't take the hint. Pay it off and your chances are greater on getting it on launch!

o ya people are getting bumped up, theres ben more evidence that theres gonna be more 360s at launch then expected. ive read that one guy walked into toys r us an asked how many they wer getting. they told him 8, then hes walking around the store, and he sees a man bring in a u-boat with brown boxes on it. he said there were almost 10 boxes, and he saw them open one and take 2 360s out of it.
