I don't know what site you're talking about but I'd guess that if you need to wait for an email, you won't get one.

I'm saying such a site will be useless because by the time they email you, everywhere will be sold out. Besides, we already know when they'll be available, the 17th. Why do you need an email telling you that? You're better off just camping out the night before like the rest of us.

How easy/common is it to pay someone to stand in line for you? I was thinking of getting a poor student type to stabd in line for the 15+ (?) hours and then taking their place right beofre opening, and giving them a cut of the profit from the ebay sale.

I guess you can just give your line number card out to anyone you want.(?)

wtf, why would someone stand in line for you and then let you back in for a cut of the profit? they could just buy it themselves ...lol

I am doing this. I am in high school and have school Friday morning so I'm just paying a couple college kids and maybe some other high school kids $150 to wait in line. I told them that if they get the PS3, I'll pay the price of it +$150. If they get in line to late and they don't get it, to bad. Also, I recommended they get there early on Thursday and immediately find out if the line is full or not yet.

How about hiring some homeless guy to stand in line?
Come takeover when store is about to open.

Just pay him with some meals and cash.

I wasn't going to wait in line for one but when I checked out what ebay item number 150056238728 went for, I've changed my mind. I know that's an abberation, but it's SICK!

Is anyone thinking about camping out on Wed night as well? or I'm just insane for thinking that way. I still have to burn 5 vacation days before the new year, so I'm thinking I might do that.
