>Probably the games that are making $15+ that go with the systems that get sold...

my retailer (biggest in US when it comes to electronics) makes no profit in games either.

Unless you sell used games by ripping off little kids who traded them in...

All retailers make money on games.

Costso (where I work) makes money off both games and consoles (even though they are known as the least expensive videogame retailer in America).

 


I said make "profit". how much is the difference between "cost" and retail price at Costco where you work?


It doesn't sound like you're an expert in retail sales. You're failing to account for so many other factors it's like you're being purposefully obtuse or willfully ignorant. Or you're just having fun defending a joke position?

It's really hard to take what you just said seriously, considering you offered absolutely no insight to the topic or suggested any other meaningful argument.

Profit margin is a hard number, you either get it or you don't. Maybe go into the field and ask your local employee to find out yourself?
