Hey Costco, do you know what it feels like to have several thousand people refreshing your Web site all at once? Well, you’re about to.
An e-mail sent today by Costco.com confirms that they’ll be offering PS3 bundles on their site. No word on what is to be included in the bundle in the e-mail, but hell, they could include five games and an extra controller and it’d still be cheaper than eBay.
The bundle will appear on the front page at approximately 8 a.m. PST, 11:00 a.m. EST. Unfortunately for those of us who don’t buy our Kraft dinner by the year-supply, the bundle is available to Costco members only. D’oh!
For Costco members, this might be the best chance to score a PS3 that doesn’t include the sale of a kidney or first-born child.
Read the full e-mail after the jump.
Dear Costco Member,

This item will be available for purchase on costco.com on Friday, November 17, 2006 at approximately 8:00 a.m. Pacific Time. The item will be prominently displayed on the homepage of costco.com until it is sold out.
Due to an extremely limited supply, we can accept orders from current Costco members only on a first come, first served basis, with a limit of one unit per household. The Costco warehouses do not have units available at this time.
Orders for the Sony PlayStation 3 Bundle will be shipped via UPS by Monday, November 20, 2006. Tracking information will be available on costco.com.
We hope to receive additional quantities in our warehouses and on costco.com prior to Christmas, but we do not have an estimated arrival date, or approximate quantity at this time. We apologize in advance if you are unable to purchase this item from Costco Wholesale.
