Buy your Xbox 360 on Ebay
So the company I work for sells CDs and DVDs in stores, mostly in malls. I work at the corporate headquarters, which is in the same building as the warehouse. My major function here is to support the IT that keeps the warehouse humming. Earlier today I wandered back through the shelves toward the warehouse manager to chat about something when I came across a pallet of Xbox 360s! Right here in my building!
It turns out that we've already sold 70 of them in stores around the country, but we're doing the best business online. One of the sub-companies owned by my company is selling the next-gen consoles on Ebay for $800 a pop and up! Can you imagine 100% markup on physical, non-perishable goods? That's astonishing these days!
