    Well, try to sell a pre-order receipt for the Nintendo Wii. The reason I am trying to sell it is because I heard there's going to 2 to 4 million units available for sell in United States. It may be hard to find it when it's out but it will still be possible to find it according to one article I read

    So I decided to try and get the PS3 instead. So I am going to line up and try to get it. I heard it will be impossible to get it until after March 2007 according to another article I read.

    But I still have the reservation for the Wii so I decided that I will try to sell the reservation on Ebay.

    It turns out that Ebay decided to have stricter rules regrading selling hot items and making a profit from it.

    Turns out, I am not qualify for it!

    The part I am not qualify for is, I don't have 50 or more feedbacks.

    Oh well... there goes the idea of making lots of money this Christmas.

    I am still going to try and get the PS3 (if I can't, I will still get the Wii) and find another way to sell the item for a profit. I may not get as much as if I was selling on Ebay, but at least I will get something out of it.

    You may be wondering why don't I get both and sell both. The reason is, I only have enough money to get one or the other.

    I just want to rant out. That's all.

    I can't blame Ebay entirely because I am sure they trying to solve the problem what we are having. They trying to prevent Scammers and reduce the amount of people who buy hot items and sell it at a profit.

    Re: Grrr... Ebay...

    eBay is a bunch of fools. I've been scammed (as a buyer AND a seller) out of about $2500 between 2000 and 2003. After the last scam in which I lost $1000, I stopped using eBay.

    Re: Grrr... Ebay...

    Well, for those of you who don't know I've scored a part-timer (along with repoing ) at GameStop. We've acctually been talking about this ebay thing becuase my manager wanted to sell one of his PS3 reservations on ebay. You're not allowed to sell a system or game until 3 weeks after the product is released (Not allowed for preorders at all), and if paying by paypal, paypal will hold payment until proof of shipment is recieved. So wait until the 19th and sell the system!
