Xbox 360 Flipping on Ebay

Looks like people are already selling the thing for double the price on Ebay.

EBay said the average price for consoles, including those sold with games and other add-ons, was $660. However, the company said some console packages were selling for as much as $2,500, with bidding and sales prices varying widely.

Whoever is paying $2500 for it has more money then sense. They will have lots of these things on the market before too long. It will be interesting to see how this perceived shortage will play out in the US:

Still, Microsoft has conceded that an ambitious plan to launch the console worldwide within a few weeks -- rather than staggering releases over months and months, as is typical -- will mean fewer consoles initially in North America.
