And your knowledge of VGC reliability comes from? I'm pretty sure they collect more than 2000 game related receipts countrywide.

The problem really isn't the sample size. The difference in margin of error between a sample size of 1,000 and 150,000 is marginal.

The problem with Infoscout is that their methodology is likely non-random and kind of wonky.

marginal? Are you sure? and on case of the HW it's a lot less than 1000
