How many did the BB in lexington KY have available?

Best buy will be opening in 6 hours from now. The problem is that I have to take the bus for an hour and the trip back is an hour. Should I go ay 7 AM, wait from 8 to 9, and go in for the console? Or will there be a long line there already since I am not early enough and my efforts are futile?

there is like over 40 people in bb at 1am in Milpitas, CA...

C'mon, who doesn't want to camp out overnight to make sweet $40 on a Wii? It's big business man!

Just drove by BB, 20 or so people with 3 hours 'til open and I'm sure half are going on fleaBay...

I stopped by the Best Buy in Westland, MI right about 9AM and they had just given out tickets. They had 52 Wiis and more than 52 people in line (though I'm not sure exactly how many more, since the unlucky people had already left).

FAIRLAKES, VA BESTBUY

Gave out 63 Tickets. It was probably a pallet of 100.



I arrived at 8:00 #50

Mostly family buyers unlike ghetto PS3 resellers = no chaos

Bestbuy Seattle (northgate), manager came out around 6:30 and said they have 51. Looks like there are about 45 people in line now.

i plan to go maybe 1 hour ahead of opening. I'll bring something to do and its worth the time to make sure I get one for a gift before christmas.

by the sounds of it.. the answer was yes.

Best Buy in Newnan, GA had 18 Wiis, with 20 people in line...we were #12 and arrived at 8:10AM, tickets were given out @ 9:00AM. Lots of folks arrived just before 10:00AM, asking for Wiis. Now the hunt begins for a classic controller and an extra nunchuck....

...you do realize that the market is already beginning to bottom out, right? That some consoles are selling for +$30 retail, if that? Go over to HD and click a thread at random. Chances are, the margin for resale will be equal to or higher than the Wii.

Leave the console to those that actually want to play it -- it'll help those that are hunting for it and save you the trouble of selling something that's not worth your time.

Where exactly are these consoles selling for "+$30 retail, if that"? The lowest ones that eBay shows as having completed in the past 40 minutes or so were $370 - $375. Some are still going for upwards of $450.
