I was in Best Buy at lunch tme to look at what movies were available and as I walked in, a lady was walking out with a brand new PS3 in her arms.

I walked over to the game section and asked the clerk if they had any more. He said "Yes, go over to the service desk." I got in line at the service desk and was the next in line. The guy ahead of me was buying a PS3. I saw the clerk ring it up: $599. There were 3 more units on the counter behind him.

When he finally called me up, I said I wanted a PS3. He asked which one. When I told him I wanted the 60GB he said "Sorry sir, we just sold the last 60GB unit. All we have now are the 20's." I said I really didn't want that one and walked out.

Was I stupid or what? I guess I could have put that one on eBay and tried to buy another one in a later week. I feel bad now about turning it down because I could have taken it back if I didn't open it.

Oh well, I guess I learned something here.
