Give that item description a good read.

I figure this is a good place to post about it; I'm sure I'm not the only one who 'values' those stickers Gamestop puts all over their cases, coverart and manuals.

That's a pretty sweet deal DOOM, if you want to upgrade to a GHWT guitar, eBay seems to have LOTS of them for 25 bucks, free shipping.

Yeah, as for Guitar Hero guitars I'd swear by the X-plorer and the Stratocaster if you don't mind the cable. They're by far the best in my oppinion. I actually prefer the Stratocaster because of the fret buttons which make sliding that much easier and more comfortable. I tried the wirelss Les Paul from GH3 but I like the GHWT guitar a lot better.

I was actually hoping that we'd get a wireless X-plorer or another "metal" guitar with Guitar Hero Metallica since Aerosmith got its own guitar or at least own faceplate. So I'll stick with the GHWT guitar until the wireless Rock Band 2 guitar is released her in Europe.

Really?   I personally HATED my rock band guitar...pawned it at Play N Trade.
So far, only guitar to fully crap out on me is my old x-plorer (it stopped strumming down). 
 My wife has the Les Paul, and I have the GHWT guitar.   Both wireless guitars purchased from eBay and they work fine.

I actually like the new RB2 strat after the improvements that have been made on it, I wonder if I can get it to work with Frets on Fire though...

Back on topic though, $5000? Seriously? Why are these worth so much? I hate stickers anyway, so it seems like double the waste :P

It's a joke. It's mocking GameStop's new policy while at the same time generating publicity for the user. Maybe even get him $5000 if someone is weird like that. (similar things on eBay have happened before)

haha he had actually played it up to seem worth something :P

"Will your copy of FFVII work? Who knows? This has been tested by a Gamestop employee!" loved that line lol

Hm, I do remember someone once getting 600 bucks for a PS3 box.
