You could be right, it's hard to analyze those cases. But usually the price cuts aren't known so much in advance, certainly not officially at least. I just can't remember a single example when there was a big drop in sales due to future price cuts.
Hype in forums rarely translates to the same level in the real world, which also applies to game sales...
