I don't think anyone has said that they reduced price by $200 agabara, point me to a thread if I'm wrong.

What the common argument is, is that Sony had two price cuts to increase demand. The fact that both SKU's are now $100 cheaper has little to no relevance in my eyes. The argument is how many times the price was reduced, so you can't turn around and say what matters is the price, as that was not the argument put forth to begin with.

Two price cuts @ $100 each implies $200. However:

If you think the important thing is how many price cuts there were, then I disagree with you. I think the total decrease in price is the most important. Would you really consider Sony more "desperate" if they dropped the price by $50, and then later by $50, rather than $100 at once? I wouldn't.

Edit: as for people saying the price cut was $200, simply look at the post above yours.
