people camping out at wal-mart for PS3 already!

[waggy]

went to wal-mart to get some X-mas shopping.

while walking around near the layaway place. there was 5 people in sitting with bags and 2 cops not to far away talking with the manager.

a manager i know was walking by and i asked if they caught someone shoplifting. he said no they have someone camping out for the PS3!

I didnt see what happened. the cops left but the manager said they were comeing back. lol

I saw online that people have been camping out for days all over the country. In some places in California they are kicking them out.

 

[IronWing]

Great, now I have a Beck song in my head.

 

[FoBoT]

yeah, lock em up

the stores should either issue lotto tickets and send them home or just have them arrested for tresspassing
people sitting in a line for a week is retarded

LOL, I haven't followed the PS3 news. Is it really worth it? I bet I know the answer too.

no

wii ftw!

Is the PS3 actually going to have any awesome titles at launch? My guess is no. Those idiots are better off waiting 6-12 months for the demand to die down and more availability.

Some people have been camping out for a week (since last monday). I'd bet $20 that at least half of them are people who want to scalp on ebay, though.

my guess is that they dont wanna buy it to own it. they prolly wanna sell it on ebay for a quick profit. But 'quick' goes out of the window when you wait in line for a week

Family camping out at walmart for a week to resell PS3's?
Trailer trash FTW!


I can imagine the conversation went something like this:

Pa: "Guess what Ma, we going on vacation!"
Ma: "Cool beans Pa, where we going? Nashville? Mobile? Lexington?"
Pa: "Naw, we camping out at WalMart for PS3s"
Ma: "Awwww shucks Pa, you really know how to treat yer family right"

Hence the available time to camp out for a week!!

 

[altonb1]

"Yeah, let's go camp out and take time off of work."

let's see...at $10/hr, that's $80/day. $80 x 5 days = $400. Will the profit be worth it? There is no way that I could come anywhere near to breaking even at my salary...eswpecially considering I usually have a few hours of OT each week, too!

Meh. What a bunch of 'tards.

 

[homercles337]

Reminds me of those canadian kids that waited in line for a week for an xbox360 and proceeded to smash it to bits in front of all the other fools in line.

Retarded it may be, but why arrest them? They're not doing anyone any harm.

With the amount of time and energy employed in reselling PS3/Wii you could have found a job.

 

[Fingolfin269]

If I were a Wal-Mart employee I'd let them sit there for a few days. Then I would tell them they have to leave.

Maybe a crappy job.
I'd rather sit there for a week with my family than to go to mc donalds to flip burgers, or walmart to restock wrenches.

weak-sauce

For the fanboys, what's the point? It took 5 months for GRAW to be released for 360, and a year for Gears of War. Is Fall of Man that strong of a release title?

 

[thawolfman]

My buddy called to see how many our local store was getting in and was told that they were getting 6 and that people were only allowed to wait outside when the store closed (10pm).

Sounds like something a welfare recipient would say.
