That's Best Buy's problem. If they hid those 50 Xbones in the back, people would think they are in high demand too and want to buy one. Create some demand by not showing. People ain't going to buy an Xbone any time soon if they see that. They can get one any time they want. |
That's stupid if people actually think that way.
|
Explain. Tell me how anyone would want to buy an Xbone if they saw that stack. If there was one or two consoles on the shelf, I would be more inclined to want to snag one up, before they sell out. I wouldn't know there are 100 or so in the back.

So when you see two washing machines in a store, you snag one up because they could sell out??? I can't quite follow your logic here..
|
If someone was looking for an washing machine and it fit what they wanted out of it, then fuck yes. I've actually shopped around for washing machines before and they go out of stock quick because they carry low quantities of each model. Supply can create demand.
You guys aren't accounting for spur of the moment shoppers. People who don't come in there with an agenda to buy right away. But of course everything is stupid, if it doesn't follow your own way of thinking or logic.

The problem is your logic assumes that there is this critical mass of "impulse" buyers when there is not. Sure you might find a few here or there but at $400-500 the amount of impulse buying too limited for that type of sales tactic to work. Especially after a few months of being out on the open market.
Besides what would Best Buy have to gain by holding back PS4 units off the display floor over the XB1? Sony paying off Best Buy?

why not? everything is a conspiracy these days.

Conspiracy theory makes the Earth go 'round.
