With the demand for the new PS3 greater than the supply, Craigslist users have taken advantage of this scenario by selling the console, or their place in line outside of retail stores on November 16, where the PS3 went on sale at midnight, to make a pretty penny. Buying a place in line cost upwards of $900 plus the retail price of the console at $499 or $599, and the price of the console on Craigslist has been as high as $2500.
