This walmart and manager were the best. Everyone who waited for the ps3 i knew from somewhere. 12 of us kept r numbers and did what ever we wanted in the store then. The manager was honest the whole day. Then asked whoos getting the wii. He's like well guys; he opened a box and there was 10 wii's right in front of me no one would ever get to see. Until sunday. There were 3 boxes of them and told us there will be 30 and maybe more by sunday.

Are you talking about a store manager? I hope not. Why? Because that would discredit your entire story. Store managers don't so much as TOUCH product, nor anything kept in the stockroom. They sit in an office and fire people.

Your story is slightly more believable for a floor manager, but only slightly. Again, why? Because floor managers are not able to access stockrooms, only stockroom specific employees do, and as far as things like new game systems go, they are securely store up high out of most stockroom employee's reach(to prevent theft, which is rampant in these stores) and escorted (usually after hours only) by several stock employees and in many cases, a floor manager. If a floor manager was walking around with these things out in the open, he would probably allow the store manager to do his own thing by firing the floor manager.

I won't come out and blatantly call you a liar; because stranger things have happened, and nothing's impossible. But I will say your story would have to involve a tackle box in order to sound any fishier. But then again, I've seen stranger things, so there is some chance it happened.

This was not ur usual camp outside console release. They got the wii's and ps3's in right in front of us from fedex. They put a sign up in the store everyone is accounted for ps3. We shopped played games w/e. Everyone knew eachother and kept same spots cause we had numbers. The floor manager and assistant manager was there all night. We saw the ps3's being unpacked from the hallway entrance of walmart. We saw wii and ps3 before any regular person buying one in the country. You could never have another launch this perfect again.

Your second post indicates some things that sound good; and some things that sound wrong.

Dude. Wal-mart.

Let me say that again: Wal-Mart.

*Shudders*

Nothing will ever be perfect in Wal-Mart. Nothing.

All humor aside; it's extremely unlikely that they would unpack mechandise worth so much money right out in the open, or even in plain sight at all. This is the same system that caused muggings, tramplings, hospitilizations, and assault charges. Like I said, I'm not here to call anyone a liar; but your story sounds very fishy.

Ok u don't have to beleive anything I am saying. I just know where I live in a small community in the most northern part of the united states. Everyone who waited for those ps3's knew each other. Literaly 15 people showed up and the 3 that didn't get anything we knew to. All I have to say is there were 12 tickets from 2pm to midnight that stayed the same and no one else came because the sign stated they were accounted for. All I know is that my story is true. That's all that matters to me. This day was like no other launch prolly in the united states.
