I did something similar as a student, to get a PStwo at 99$ (equivalent), it was not even for me but for a familly member that asked for it. I was waiting at opening but I refuse to run like a dumbass in the store. There were 99 units, the time I walk the 50 meters to the game section, there were 2 left. Got one, then 3 guys fought for the last one like it was a pack of rice and they didn't eat for a week.
I felt ashame to take part into this but I made someone I love happy so it was somewhat worth it.
