VERNON, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- On Ouchs couldÂ've stood in line forhours to get his 60-gigabyte PlayStation 3 on Nov. 16th, the eve of the gamingsystemÂ's much hyped launch on Nov. 17th. But, he didnÂ't.
Instead, he paid someone $750 Canadian for a guaranteed spot in line to purchase thehottest gaming system available this holiday season.
Sony released only 400,000 of the units in North America.
Now, Ouchs wants to auction the still-packaged PlayStation 3 console, two games andextra wireless controller -- retail valued from $700-$1000 USD -- for a mere dollaron eBay, even as other eBay sellers are turning large profits on their PS3 sales.
Why?  Because I am a nice guy, Ouchs says.  And because I want to go down inhistory, and maybe get to appear on Jay Leno.Â
The auction will run via OuchsÂ' eBay store between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Thebuy-it-now price will be $1. For an unreleased period, the auction will be shieldedfrom any bids through eBay s pre-qualified bidder process.
Prospective bidders who want to hit the buy-it-now button on eBay, purchasing thesystem, must first go to OuchsÂ' Web site http://www.onedollarplaystatio n3.com andexplain why they should be on SantaÂ's Good List for the year.
Sometime before Christmas, Ouchs plans to open the buy-it-now feature up to allbidders deemed worthy by the jolly-old bearded one, himself.
At that point, the auction will go quickly, selling to the first bidder who noticesthe auction is no longer being pre-screened.
 ItÂ'll be fun and exciting, Ouchs said.  In the end, somebody is going to begetting a great deal.Â
He expects the auction to experience a high level of watchers and possibly be one ofthe largest eBay auctions ever, given the high public demand for the gaming consolesthis season. If he is able to raise the funds, Ouchs wants to make the specialdelivery himself.
 I want to be able to hand deliver this system to the winning bidder and see thesmile on their face, he said.
