They didn't factor in other costs like overhead or the retailer's cut. The extra expenses could balloon the cost to over $400.

Retailers make nothing on hardware.

Oh they definitly do. At least in europe.

I had a friend during uni days that worked at a major retailer in Portugal and they would count PS3 sales very highly. It was a great day when they sold 3 in one day (on the store she worked in). So yeah... not only they make money, as they make alot.
