Get Rich Quick: Have The Homeless Buy Your PS3s

What do you get when you combine homeless people with nothing to do, a popular department store, and the Playstation 3 coming out tomorrow?  You get a get rich quick scheme worthy of Top Cat himself!  No, f*** that stupid cat -- this is actually brilliant, and doesn't involve tricking an already stupid policeman.  Someone is paying homeless people $100 a day to sit in line for PS3s, which they'll buy retail for $600 a piece, and resell on eBay for $2000.  Check out this video:

It's perfect.  The homeless make money, and the guy funding the venture gets big bucks.  Oh, but wait -- doesn't it seem like there are a lot of stories right now about PS3s going up on eBay?  Are there gonna be so many that their resell value will decrease?  I mean, does anyone want to actually play this thing, or do people just want to try and make some money?  Uh oh.  Scheme in trouble?!

Well, even if they don't sell, the homeless still make their money.  And if the homeless wait in enough lines, they'll be able to afford their own PS3s, which they can try and resell on eBay.  And when they don't sell, they can use them as fancy sitting boxes!
