Before you guys yell at me for trying to make a quick buck, money is tight this year and spending my day trying to get one of these was the only way i was gonna have money for xmas gifts.

So, any ideas on the best way to sell it? Im guessing ebay, but there are a TON on there. If i can get $500 id be happy, thats like $150 less than ive seen them on ebay and amazon. Craigslist maybe? Street corner?
 
hahahah if you baught it to re-sale it was a wasted effort.


seems like to much effort for maybe $120

You could have tried spending your day working instead.

Money is tight around here too, and I wanted a Wii, but I'm not paying ebay prices.
Thanks for helping put it out of my reach for now. :roll:
 
You're about 3 weeks to late.

Expect to make maybe $50 - $100 minus eBay and Paypal fees and your time.
 
Pssshhh......how could you? I thought most of the people on here actually wanted to play the wii. I got mine 2 weeks ago and can't put the wiimote down. Zelda is soooooooo awesome.
 
ad in the local paper; $200 or best offer. As soon as someone calls about it, "best offer so far is $350. I'm taking offers until 8pm tonight."
 
I checked ebay... prices were around $500 last i saw. I mean, i still have the receipt, i can return it if no one wants it. Was just hoping anyone might have some ideas.

And come on, we live in a capitalistic world, if someone's willing to pay a lot for it then why's it such a bad thing?

Anyway, i guess i'll just try craigslist. Thanks for the advice... sorta... 😛

No it's the fact that people like you are lowering supply and driving up demand. Think of it this way, you stole some legitimate buyer's chance at getting a Wii, and said I'll sell it to you for twice as much. Just not right.
 
stop whining you fvcking babies. He stood out there so he can do whatever the fvck he wants. Thats bullsh1t that he's taking away someones chance to get one, cause you could have stood your fat ass out there all night to get one too.

How is someone not a legitimate buyer just because they have the money to pay more?
