In less than 6 months local electronic retailers will have so many in stock people won't even give them a second look.  I know I should feel sorry for this person but I just can't.  It speaks volumes of how lame society has gotten in America.  This mentality of needing something NOW, needing the best of everything eventhough 90% of people can't afford it.  Buying crap won't make up for all the inadequacies in your life.  I just about feel off my chair in disgust seeing people getting hugs and walking off with their PS3 after waiting several days outside, you'd think they had just won the olympics or gotten their PhD or something.  I just fail to understand it.  I'll end my rant now.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rick Person]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 20th 2006 6:04PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Overzealous eBayer drops $900 for "Sony PlayStations, 3 of them"]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/20/overzealous-ebayer-drops-900-for-sony-playstations-3-of-them/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/20/overzealous-ebayer-drops-900-for-sony-playstations-3-of-them/</guid><description><![CDATA[Fine, “Then always read the description”…whatever.

This is not quite as bad as those that bought an empty PSP or XBOX 360 box. The good thing about e-bay is if you have an issue just retract your bid before you pay for it.

He  didn't know it and retracted his bid and thanked me.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[patrick]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 20th 2006 6:56PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Overzealous eBayer drops $900 for "Sony PlayStations, 3 of them"]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/20/overzealous-ebayer-drops-900-for-sony-playstations-3-of-them/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/20/overzealous-ebayer-drops-900-for-sony-playstations-3-of-them/</guid><description><![CDATA[" 1. incredulous - not disposed or willing to believe; unbelieving "<br><br>A price can't be incredulous; only a person can.
