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.

I'm talking about Murica. The region where we're making cost breakdown comparison.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,

To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."
