I'm saved, thanks to the bundles of fun that is eBay. While I did have to pay double the price for a Core System, I have my devious ways of making back all that dough. I'll tell you if that particular plan goes well much later. So, yeah, I'll be plopping down the extra $140 for two wireless controllers and a memory card, but it's totally worth it if it means I get my 360 in five days. Mmmm.... I heart Joanna Dark.
