Guy gets mugged trying to sell 2 PS3' s for $5000

A man in California was mugged by the 2 men who had agreed to buy his 2 PlayStation 3 systems over Craiglist for $2500 a piece. Arriving at a 1AM meet at a McDonald' s in La Palma, the men he was selling to sprayed him with pepper spray and took off with the consoles.
I find it very hard to feel bad for this guy. First off, he obviously kept 2 PS3' s out of the hands of people who really wanted them just so he could jack the prices. I know it' s all about capatalism, but that doesn' t mean he isn' t a dick.
Secondly, any parent can tell you that meeting strage men from the internet in the middle of the night is a bad idea, especially when you are carrying $1200 worth of one of the hottest gaming products of the year. If ever anyone was asking for it, this guy was. The victim' s name was not released, presumably so as not to have him labled world' s biggest dumbass.
While it would' ve been even funnier if they' d raped him too, this in itself is chuckle inducing...  What kind of a fool meets up with 2 other men in the early hours of the morning, takes 2 PS3' s with him and expects them to hand over $5000?!

Well, if they ever recover the PS3s it won' t be any problem checking them for fingerprints!

Very true and once they match the prints with their filthy fingers, someone should chop all their fingers off, so they never ever get the chance to even simply smudge such a fantasically shiny object ever again.

Now that' s the kind of " My console is better than your console" arguing I can stand to hear.
