Serious question. What's to keep someone from being an a-hole and showing up 5 minutes prior to opening and going to the front of the line? It would suck to wait in line for 40 hours and have some 6'8 behomoth cut in front of you at the last minute.

Also, if you plan on purchasing more than one on your credit card (i.e. at different stores) you may run into difficulty because it will look suspicious and they could suspend your card. I'm not sure if you could phone up ahead of time though and tell them you'll be making a lot of purchases in a short time. |

They'd have to show up 1 hour and 5 min before at Best Buy since employees will give out numbers 1 hour prior to store openings.
But it was suggested in other threads that someone take some post-it notes and a marker to give out numbers to everyone in line. When D-Bag tries to claim he's first and the other 20 people have their own numbers hopefully the manager is smart enough to know what's up. |

Personally, if I was first in line, I'd just cut him. But I figured stores had someone to avoid bloodshed in these situations.

I just called the BestBuy and Target in my area and each said they can't disclose how many they'll be receiving. Any Ideas?

It depends on a lot of things. Roundabout Best buy like 20-25 total. Target less... Alot less if its not a super target. |
