    Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

    Is anybody else thinking about parking their car in the parking lot of a Walmart, Target or Best Buy on Black Friday with a sign on your trunk that says "Get Brand New Unopened PS4 Here - $900 (Cash Only)"? Seriously, I'm pretty certain you'd make a sale.

          Eh, I'll park underneath some cameras. Plus they have cops sitting in parking lots down here during Black Friday sales. People don't really try that as much anymore in TX, they know half of the people are carrying.

            You run into problems with them? I've only ever been questioned once and he just wanted to see that I'd actually purchased the product and didn't steal it. When I showed him a receipt, he was cool.

              I'd rather not take the risk. eBay would be sufficient enough or Craig's List if you want to get a little crazier.

                  My thing with eBay is, everybody will be selling that second console on eBay. So if there are quite a few availalbe, it's going to drive the price down. If you're catching people on Black Friday, they're in "I have to have it now" mindset. I have thought about Craigslist. I use to sell stuff on Craigslist all the time but people are getting crazy these days. Letting them know ahead of time that I've got a console could be asking for it. I could always put it on eBay and start the bidding around $500 without free shipping.

                    Yes you can, I just added 3 more months to my current sub and plan to get another year through Best Buy this week.

                        I don't know man...I think that's just a risky if not more than selling on Craigslist. People will be in a "want-it-now" mindset which may = taking it from you without paying for it.

                        Cameras won't really deter people who will do anything to get something they want. Be careful.

                          Not at all. I don't even really want to go the craigslist route. Although if I do, I simply plan to make the exchange in the parking lot of the local PD, when my cop friend is doing his shift change. I've only done one craigslist sale and it was with my wife (GF at the time) and the whole thing left me rather uncomfortable.

                          I don't plan to be the guy who shows up on the news as getting robbed at gun point for a PS4, XB1.

                            Guys get robbed anytime Nike has a big release for the newest pair of Jordans. What makes you think popping your trunk with a sign that says Xbox One or PS4 for sale won't have the same results.

                            ****, people are robbed every Black Friday for various items for a far lesser value too. Good luck, man.

                                More nerds at a console launch for sure, but don't think for a second the type of person looking to rob someone wouldn't use a console launch as a chance to take one from somebody. Heck, it would probably be easier robbing someone for a console vs. a pair of Jordans.

                                Crooks play video games too.
