Hello,

Unfortunately, it's not gonna be easy. If it was, they wouldn't be selling on eBay like that. It's a supply and demand issue. They aren't overpriced, they are priced at what the market will bear. I've had mine since shortly after it was released. I bought it on eBay. In hindsight, this was a great move because it hasn't gone down at all, really, from what I got it at before the holidays.

So, my recommendaton would be to get your credit card handy and bid to win. Have a set price in mind and bid at that price point. If it's realistic, you'll get one.

If you can't invest your money, you will need to invest your time and get lucky. You'll need to call all stores in your area - over and over again, get ready to stand in line before opening over and over again, etc. etc. I can't afford to spend my time that way, so it's better, in my case, to just spend the extra $150 and save my time, the gas money, etc. etc. and just get down to enjoying it.

Beyond that, you will simply have to wait it out. Once demand drops, so will the prices.

Where are you located, by the way?
