NintendoMonopoly said: 1st off, how does a rebate being in 1 country or worldwide change anything? Places with a rebate get a demand increase and places without a rebate don't. 2nd, Sony is trying to increase appeal and not increase sales?!?!? I think you need to look up the word contradiction. Ppl that buy the system while the sale is going on and mail-in the rebate too late are going to mind. Bottom line is, you still haven't explained how, a mail-in rebate is better than store price cut for appeal. If a consumer sees 1 company doing permanent in-store price cuts, and then sees another company just doing a small temporarily mail-in rebate, you don't think that effects the way average consumers value the discount? I think I've explained my opinion as clearly as it needs to be explained and most reasonable ppl are going to get it. I assume, you're either grasping at straws, trying to discredit it, or completely oblivious to the point. I really don't know much more obvious it could be. Either way, I think it's time to move along. It's evidently an old rebate that hasn't effected much of anything. |
1. Rebate being in one country changes losses.
2. I never said they weren't trying to increase sales. I said they weren't trying to create high demand.
3. I think I have a very good understanding of contradiction so... no thanks.
4. I never said it was better for appeal.
5. You don't think this is targetting certain consumers of a specific product? You think Sony is going for the general audience and not just the people who want a Ps3 but are looking at it's price? I got news for you.
6. I feel the same way
