Amazon is not a reliable source for sales data.

 

Gamestop has bundles in stock too ( and is number 1 us retailer for video games, is that reliable enough ?).

so does BestBuy, Target, WallMart...

And they have had it in stock for at least 6 days...

SOME Gamestops, BB, Target, Walmart have SOME 80GBs THIS week. That is a totally different situation to a couple of months ago where all retailers had full supply of 40GBs and sales were hitting 50-60k per week. 40GBs are only now available online and 80GBs are coming in limited quantities. That said, this weeks sales (27th - 2nd Aug) are already higher since there was a decent restock at many stores on Monday

And yes, Amazon is not a reliable source!

 

Ok maybe it's specific to Colorado but here there was huge restocks of 80Gb at most retailers in my area last Friday or before that ( I saw the 80Gb on Friday at BB, 8 on display, my Target had 6 80Gb on display on Satursday).

Gamestop and BB online were stocked last Wednesday and have been since ( I checked that day when I saw someone mentioning Amazon had 80Gbs).
