I'm gonna go buy an xbox tommorrow morning just for the purpose of selling it on ebay. If it doesn't sell, then I'll just return it to Target. No way I can lose any money on the deal.

Keep us updated. In fact you could just sell the box for the X-Box and get some extra bucks.

Did I miss something? Why would anyone pay $366 for the box, if they can buy the system (and I imagine the box) for $300?

This is probably how Bin Laden is funding terrorist activities. Sell stupid Americans empty cardboard boxes for lots of money.

I can see it now (the poor man's xbox):

The friend: Cool, Let's play it. What games did you get?
The Poor Guy: nah, I got to wait until x-mas to open it.
