I'm tempted to sell a lot of my stuff to fund it, but I really don't think it's worth the investment...what about you guys?
edit - I read some of the first few pages and I tend to agree with twisted that the value will drop, once the £1000 payers dry up there will be a natural drop. Think I'd happily pay over the RRP - I offered some guy on eBay £500 + I'd come and collect and pay cash in hand but he wasn't interested, didn't even come back with a counter or reply, I offered another guy £600 and he politely declined, I figured someone might be interested in a no-hassle deal...such a shame the Game promotion was a shambles.

I'd be very surprised to see one sell for less than £900 on Ebay. Remember Ebay + Paypal charge the seller about 13.4% on the whole transaction. So the seller has to take that into account too.
For a cash pick up maybe you could snag one for £800. But remember these are very limited. Remember when the original backwards compatible PS3 FAT was launched in November 2006, many years later they were selling for over $2000 on Ebay!
I entered the 'shambles' competition and submitted the form like within 40 seconds and still failed to get one
On another day the page failed to load in time! so I had no choice but to buy at premium.
Good luck with getting one at a good price though.
