PS3: Sold for one HUNDRED meellion dollars!
Has Dr. Evil come up with another freakin’ master plan to take over the freakin’ world, and destroy his swingin’ long-time nemesis, Austin Powers – and finally get a tank full of sharks with freakin’ lasers?
Thankfully, no. But what we did find on eBay was a PS3 being sold for almost exactly that amount, and while we were seriously, skeptical about this deal, we gave the bidders the benefit of the doubt, and checked out if this was bogus. It wasn’t.
k.c.cards, the dude who started the auction, apparently bought his unit over at Siloam Springs, AR Game Stop, and guarantees that the unit will be delivered by Saturday if the bidding finishes by today.
The opening bid started a 0.00, and by the powers that be of the Chaos Theory, 10 minutes the bid was eventually jacked up to 10,000, then 300,000, and then hit a ridiculous One Meellion dollars (all that under 10 mins.). From there, it snowballed into the now ,999,999.00 mark staring us in the face, with a bidder named psingley85 winning out with the said offer.
We can’t just dismiss this as bogus, considering psingley85’s, k.c.card’s track records. psingley85 and sting6696 – another previous bidder (who later retracts his bid) – both had quite a number of past purchases in eBay, and k.c.cards himself also had a respectable auction track record. We’re not sure what to make of this brain-busting amount Sony‘s next-gen console just got pawned off for…
We do have some theories. One: Is this some new ploy by Microsoft Overlord Bill Gates to get himself his very own PS3 (bite your tongue, child!)? Two: Has Kazuo Hirai finally decided to buy one for his kid? Given the sort of muggings and thefts have been going on today regarding the PS3, you can chalk this one up to our hourly dose of insanity. The horror…the horror…
