    Costco.com will have PS3 bundles for sale Friday 11/17, 8am PST

    Dear Costco Member,

    You requested to be notified when the Sony PlayStation 3 Bundle is available for purchase at Costco Wholesale. This item will be available for purchase on costco.com on Friday, November 17, 2006 at approximately 8:00 a.m. Pacific Time. The item will be prominently displayed on the homepage of costco.com until it is sold out.

    Due to an extremely limited supply, we can accept orders from current Costco members only on a first come, first served basis, with a limit of one unit per household. The Costco warehouses do not have units available at this time.

    Orders for the Sony PlayStation 3 Bundle will be shipped via UPS by Monday, November 20, 2006. Tracking information will be available on costco.com.

    We hope to receive additional quantities in our warehouses and on costco.com prior to Christmas, but we do not have an estimated arrival date, or approximate quantity at this time. We apologize in advance if you are unable to purchase this item from Costco Wholesale

    From what I remember with the 360.. not too cheap. So these will probably be in the 900-1000 range.

    I'm so stupid...I was thinking I had to get up at 5am EST. It's 11am EST = 8am PST right?

    I drove by my local electronics stores and saw the lines last night. Today I hear there were a couple of incidents. Pepper spray was used at the Circuit City in Tysons Corner, VA

    Costco's website is already starting to experience issues and there is still over an hour before the bundles go on sale.
    It only ends once... Anything that happens before that is just progress.

    Courage is not the absence of fear but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear.

    I guess people can't do the time math. You think this $99MM bidder will pay up.

    Well it's 10:55 and it already shows as sold out. Interesting.

    I got in on Costco at 7:35, was able to add it to the cart. By the time I finished entering the payment info, it gave me a page saying product unavailable. The speed really bogged down in matter of a couple of minutes. Oh well
