Forums - Gaming Discussion - At my Best Buy we only have PS4 Destiny bundles which no one wants

I am an employee at Best Buy, we sell so many Xbox One Assassins Creed bundles for 350$ but hardly anyone buys any PS4 Destiny bundles for 450$ it is overpriced and the competition simply offers better.  We sold out of all GTA 5 bundles but I think Sony needs to do something about this because no one is buying the Destiny bundle we have had these in stock since september and no one wants them. There are no original PS4s either the only thing they have is their Destiny bundles. 

If Sony doesn't do anything about it I am 100% sure Microsoft will win December NPD.  This isn't just my Best Buy I checked all Best Buys and they all have Destiny bundles only. 

I think they should cut the price to 399$. That's what Microsoft would do.



I trust no one, not even myself.

That's stupid of Sony, period.



Sounds like your store manager is a moron and not a problem on Sony's side. Maybe your store should order some more stock of the standalone model.



Oh no, if Sony doesn't do anything then MS will win December NPD.... the horror!!! I'm sure Sony are extremely bothered by this with the PS4 being the fastest selling console of all time and all.



We already know Sony is going to lose December NPD. I see no need for them to do a price cut right now.

Do you realize how important NA market is?  Xbox one has been outselling it here for weeks now things are starting to change.

Its not the PS4....its Destiny. How do I know this? PS4 is still selling well and Playstation anniversary consoles sold out. There has been no word of mass returns of any Playstation bundle outside of the Destiny one.



So from your post...

Original $399 PS4 is outta stock. And I don't know how seriously to take you or your store if you didnt know about this. Basically, you can pay $399 for a PS4 that comes with a redeem code and be able to pick one of either FarCry 4, LBP3, Destiny and NBA2k15.

$399 GTAV+TLoU bundles out of stock too

$450 destiny bundle in stock.....

I think your store should order more of the SKUs that people actually want to buy or drop the price of the destiny bundle themselves to $399. When you think of it, why would anyone pay $450 for the PS4 wth destiny when they can pay $399 and still get destiny, unless they really want the white console.

People just have more interest in the Xbox One the demand isnt too high for PS4s. My store is desperately trying to get rid of the Destiny Bundles they cut the price to 420$ for a week but that didn't help.

Do you realize how the NA market is not even half as important to the PS4 as it is to the X1? Also it's not like the PS4 is selling poorly in NA, even if you're trying to make us believe that with your little tale.
