Shoot the re-sellers

Is there any doubt that the problem with the XBOX 360 shortage is compounded by the damn re-sellers?

Ebay is now requiring photographs of sales receipts (to be sent along with the XBOX 360), along with photos of the sealed XBOX 360 packaging. Bravo to them! This after someone sold a hand-made replica of an XBOX 360 box for $1500. Glad to see they’re responding to fraud.

One fine gentleman in Toronto, Canada showed a photograph of no less than 12 XBOX 360′s with Toys R Us receipts. How he got so many from Toys R Us is beyond me. People who really wanted one system to play can’t get it, but that asshat managed to score twelve. Disgusting.
