A friend of my wife's decided to help out a guy she works with so she stood in line too. He got a system, she got a raincheck, but the best part was the prick that was #1 in line. She said he was being a real ass, basically he thought since he was the first guy in line, he was in charge.
He gets to the register and his card was declined. No PS3 for him.

Brilliant... I'm now going through eBay looking for units with no reserve and low bids. Maybe I too can get a PS3 for < $50!! 
I'm sure this person will NOT actually sell it for that price and take the negative feedback.

But if this is typical of the Mech games they're going to be releasing... but then again, the Gundam games were never all that great on PS1 or PS2...

WOW, the prices on Ebay are going down mighty quickly this morning! Damn shame if you ask me! Why don't people want to pay $2500 for a $600 system anymore? Isn't that a bargain or are people finally realizing this is complete madness?

The final game isn't out to January, but the demo is amazing, so I am sure the full game will be just as good if not better.

Better price if he sold 1 at a time.

I really wonder what % of systems that were sold yesterday were immediately put on eBay?
As a side note, I have been outbid on all 4 systems I successfully placed $50 bids for.
