Amazon has been out of the 40GB SKU over the last week for the first time since the SKU became available in abundance. It's currently only available through independent retailers on the site. Not coincidentally, sales of the MGS4 bundle (the only SKU available direct through Amazon), have risen with the reduced availability of the 40GB SKU. Levels of 40GB SKU stock are unquestionably dwindling as the 80GB Core replacement nears its shipping date. Sales of the PS3 will very likely return to regular sales levels as soon as the $399 80GB Core SKU becomes widely available. |
But regular sales of the PS3 are around 40k. This is what i think people struggle to accept is that it could actually be the MGS4 effect has now died and things have returned to normal. Just because something sells high for a few weeks does not mean it will every week. I think next week we will see the same story as the previous 3, lower PS3 sales and people looking for excuses for them. Then we will get to next month with the 360 price cut and people will say it was expected to be low etc..
