XBox 360 shortage

[AdAge1]

Hey, I'm a reporter with Advertising Age looking to speak to some consumers about the difficulties they've had to go through to get their hands on a 360 and the exorbitant prices they had to pay. Got any stories? Please email me at bcapps@crain.com

Sure. I went to the store, and I was about to buy an Xbox 360. Little did I know, Ninjas were following me. As soon as I picked up my Xbox 360 Premuim console, Ninjermy got his sword and put it to my throat. I knew I was in big trouble. The rest of the Ninjas then....

Sounds like an awesome story, scoop.

well lets see i had a real difficult time getting mine. I had sugery the day before the xbox came out. So i couldnt go on launch day. So on launch my brother walked into Eb and they handed him my 360 then he proceeded to leave. Then i played it later that night. Now i dont know about you guys but man that was hard.Oh yah, I was number 6 on the pre-order list and was the first one to pay off everything in full. :p

this one guy tried to get a handjob from me and he would let me have his 360. turns out that he was an employee at circuit city. to this day, i regret not chocking his chicken.

I just farted...and it wreaks bad...and it feels spicy, if you guys know what I mean.

Not only that, but, it's crazy to believe that it's almost Spring.

I casually walked up to Blockbuster at 10AM on opening morning when they opened, to find an enormous line of 3 people. One of them was clearly not there for an xbox.

I casually strolled in, paid my 1 dollar left to pay, and walked home.

Was that interesting?

I was able to walk into walmart on january 1st bought one of the 7 premiums they had. I have seen 360's all over the place. If someone wants one they can get one easily. They just have to do the legwork.
