So retailes cut is more like $30-50 and not $90 eh? ;) So my calculations were semi-accurate.

I never forget.

No, the PS4 would be more expensive, so it costs more for importing (over the £250 import barrier in the UK, for example), and also retailers would want a bigger cut. So it'd be more like $70-$80, but yeah, not $90

outlawauron says retailers make next to nothing on hardware ($1 - $5), and make it moneyz from software. He has no source, but nor do we, and I'm hoping he will deliver that source as I've asked. I'm just taking his word for it as his word is as good as yours, except it agrees with me ;)

This is what I always heard too. Retailers make no profit on HW. I don't have any sources atm though.

Going to ask my brother about that. He's working in a MediaMarkt store and I already heard some good stories.
Like they're losing money on every CD album they sell.
