Bethesda knows exactly how much hype they have on their hands with this game. They deliberated manufactured so few. I'm surprised they didn't charge more.

I really do wish game companies, especially Bethesda, would change their production policy regarding collectors editions. Currently game companies produce collectors editions in limited quantity. I can only assume it's either because they believe the limited quantity will add value for those who don't intend to open the box, or because they just can't find a manufacturer able to produce the volume they need. Regardless, this approach creates a serious scalper problem. Scalpers tend to buy as much of the limited quantity stock as possible and then resell it for an unreasonable markup. I bet at least half of those pip-boy editions will show up for sale on sites like Ebay. It's my opinion game companies should commit to producing enough collectors edition games to meet demand within a set period of time, say 3 months. I can't think of a better way to reduce the feeding frenzy that inevitably happens around every popular game launch.

A very easy way to double or even triple your initial "investment". I just can't fathom why anyone would want to strap a piece of cheap bulky plastic to their wrist, but I guess that's just me.
