Grandparents Intend to spoil the baby

All of the grandparents seem to have the opinion that it is their duty to spoil the grandchild. I know these people, they're not kidding around, once the baby is old enough there will be an overabundance of presents, cash, etc. If he says I WANT, these adults will trip over each other to see who can get it to him first. How can we keep our son from getting spoiled? His grandparents will do this out of love, but it's us as parents who are going to have to deal with the brat they make of him. We've tried talking to them, but they just laugh and tell us thats what grandparents are for. He's already got a room full of toys. More toys than he'll ever be able to play with at this age range, we're thinking of donating some to charity. But right now he doesn't understand the spoiling concept (thank goodness). I'd welcome any advice here.
