Ouch, hope Tesco hit back.


How and why? It's not illegal, and i don't think Tesco cares who they sell their consoles to as long as they sell.

i can even see a bit of an advantage, as Tesco surely won't be bothered with warranty issues if any of these fail

i wonder if GAME gives warranty on preowned consoles, does anyone know?

Well, I reckon Tesco will be selling this as a "loss leader" (I think that is the term) where they sell at a loss to bring consumers in to buy other items

Rather expenisve loss-leader...

OT: At least they still get the sales anyway...and it's good news for those buying a pre-owned console from Game!!

So? whats your point? @ bold.

The sales are worthless if they're not earning a penny from it, actually it's just taking up lines which could be used on something else.

I'm saying most of the times shops like this do loss-leaders like 'Buy one get 2 free' or something like that, as opposed to a lower-priced hardware launch. I'm not saying it's a mistake (I'm all for it TBH, and they sold out where I live, whilst GS still has around 8 consoles left, so it must have worked), but it's not something you usually expect to see, due to its high price

Personally, I'd have expected more duscount bundles, you know, buy a game andget the console for 170 or something like that...
