How did I get my PS2 you ask?

with money, of course.

Prime Minister, you cannot carry on forever squeezing the productive bit of the economy in order to fund an unprecidented engorgement of the unproductive bit. You cannot spend your way out of recession or borrow your way out of debt.\" - Daniel Hannan

I got my PS2 off of a ebay auction for $500.  Yeah I guess I couldnt wait till they brought them out again in March.  I know I could have saved $200 but it was well worth it!

It was quite easy. On december 21 I went to the Virgin megastore in Paris...no ps2 ;-). I asked the guy who told
me I should come back early in the morning, they were
supposed to get some the next day, but a few ones...

December 22, a 9:00 am, I was in the virgin and felt
something was going on. Looking everywhere, but still no ps2....then I saw this guy with one under his arm, grabed
him "where did you got that", and I learned I had to queue
downstairs...

There I go and take my place in the queue, will there be one
left for me?

Yes, there was ! Great, I can\'t believe it !
I then took a memory card, SSX and Dynasty warriors,
and that was it. Got back to work, for one of the longest
days I ever knew...with the ps2 under my desk, having to
to test it !!

Anyway, I came back home early, plugged everything,
and you should guess what followed...

I know you guys are gonna call me one crazy ass mofo for this but I waited till 2 weeks after launch, looked in the classifieds and paid $800 for just the system, and then I bought 4 games 2 weeks ago after renting a whole bunch, and well that\'s what I get for not pre-ordering

Nothing too exciting here. Reserved mine Feb. 2000, waited in line at the mall (indoors, luckily) from about 8:30pm, and walked out with it at 12:45. Went home and played it for several hours and been playing ever since.

I made serious cash performing sexual favors over at the senior citizen homes near my house. Those older ladies sure know how to sock it away for a rainy day,

with all that cash I had no trouble paying top dollar on Ebay.


How far are you willing to go ?????

I use my friends PS2.

I\'ll probably buy it once the price drops to $200.
