I don't get the US price comparison in an EU (okay, EMEAA) thread myself, but he does have a valid point on the clearance pricing. Your GAME link even acknowledges that the RRP of the Elite is £50 than the 4 GB arcade. I'll hazard a guess that the £149.99 arcade will also drop in price once demand subsides. (Discounting on systems seems to be somewhat commonplace in Europe, for some reason.) Amazon.co.uk confirms these retails, and still has a price of £189.99 on the old Elite. Going to Amazon.de shows a similar case: €237.23 on the old elite 120, and €203.99 on the slim arcade. Also unrelated to other things, I can back up your statement on the release being the 20th of August, in regards to those lower posts. |
fine i quess he didnt have to get all read the forum rules on me
was just under the assumption that all skus got about 50 taken off there price tag shortly after E3 i remember in 09 the elite and arcade were £199€249 and £159€199 that arcade was up from £129€179
even if not all of EU has the elite to 150 pound 180 euro they still have it pretty close and thats considering it comes with a HDD i was just trying to state why i dont think 3604gb wont have a big impact the prices was one reason i gave and the upcoming kenic bundle being a better value is the other
i dont agree with your prediction that the 360 4gb will get a price cut b/c it kinda already did its down from £159€199 to £149€179 and since it releases near sep when do you think they'll drop it again? ive rarely seen consoles get dropped in price soon after they release
also to note about prices from uk to us
360S £199=$311 $300 off by 11
3604gb £150=$233 $200 off by 33
PS3 120gb £250=$389 $300 off by 89
PS3 250gb £285=445 $350 off by 95
Wii £179=280 $200 off by 80
why is the 360 uk and even euro prices similar to US dollars when converting but for wii and ps3 there not?
