This just goes to prove what I was talking about the other day with teh Wii's. They will never outsell the PS2, because Sony is now giving away MONEY with their systems. Well in this case, its not the dollars, its the all mighty Pound. But still, when the kid gets money inside the box with the system its, pretty good way to spend the night.
A young man in the UK got a serious shock when the PS2 that he'd won on eBay arrived at his home in Aylsham, Norfolk. The game system -- which he'd paid £95 for -- arrived without the two games promised by the seller, but with £44,000, or about $90,378. The boy and his family turned the money over to police, who are holding it until late September under the UK's "Proceeds of Crime Act" while they investigate the case. A spokesman for eBay described the situation as "somewhat unusual."
I would like to partake in something "somewhat unusual". Especially if it means a cash monies payout. And, well, I dont know if I would turn the money in. But, mom and dad don't look over my shoulder anymore either.
