what a joke. Sure, circle the wagons and jerk into a circle....but am i the only rational person who can step back and realize the spin of this article? They are citing holiday sales prices IMMEDIATELY after xmas from the beginning of january.....and now non sale prices and claiming costs are RISING......ugh, use some common sense, people.....th eprices havent climbed at all, they are simply returning to their normal price after holiday sales. Blind hatred without knowledge is terrible....never once was the MSRP cut on player prices officially, they were packaged or dropped as sales for the holiday....never a permanant price drop. FUD at its finest.

No, you're not the only one. I was going to write the exact same thing.

It's amazing how quick people are to latch on to something that fits their own preconceptions, even though it defies logical thought.


And its amazing how some people use words like "preconceptions" in insulting other people, thinking it makes them sound smart...without posting a single fact.

That chart shows prices for whole 2008. The price was lowest in mid january... this destroys your logic of "post-christmas" sales. No retailer would lower the price in mid january as boxing week sale is far over by then.

 


 Obviously you did NOT look at the graph.  The prices were lowest between January 1st and January 10th.  :P
