Gamer Pays $1,725 for Early MW3 Copy

He's probably not even going to get it until atleast a day before launch
I would just laugh if he got it after launch...

or never at all scams like this always occur on ebay

This is what asininity does to you. It kills your money.

Fixed that for you. Anyone who's willing to spend more than the ten times the MSRP on a game needs to see a psychiatrist.

Saw this picture and post at kotaku and thought it was pretty funny.

Wait, they'll pay $1,725 and we're only charging $60?

That is so true.

But the problem is that the company isn't making profit because the people who bought it first-hand bought it for retail price. The one bought for $1,725 was the one sold on ebay. The one making profit is the guy who sold it on ebay.

Saw this on the same post. I'd much rather try and catch Spiderman than to spend $1700 for a $60 game.

The same group of friends has had Skyrim for about 6 days now too.

I bet the game makers were the ones bidding such high prices -- free publicity, etc.

shooters have stories?

*thinks a while* Yes they do! Go forward, shoot things, collect ammo, reload weapons, collect new weapons, shoot things, achieve trophy, win the game.

ps. What a waste of money.
