An Xbox 360 for 85000 tickets!?

From my days working for Namco, I know that most companies that have redemption tickets value them at about $0.01 each. I think the average is about 25-40 tickets for each $0.25 you spend, this is a reasonable assessment. You may get more tickets if are super good at a game or less tickets if you suck, but the latter is most often true.

This means that if D & B is offering an Xbox 360 for 85000 tickets, that means you can expect to pay somewhere WAY OVER the list price of $299 - $399.
