GribbleGrunger said: There's something definitely wrong there. Why on earth would people buy the far more expensive XB1 bundles above the $300 Nathan Drake Bundle? Are Walmart patrons a completely different species from your normal Black Friday consumers? Now I think about it, haven't we had this conversation before? I seem to recall they're best sellers list being questioned before. It seems to me more to do with trying to push certain products than actually being representative of sales. Now I've just typed that I distinctly remember this conversation. I think it was on GAF last year. |
LOL. People are confused.
Walmart Best Seller is simply a sorting function not an actual list. Notice there are no ranks. Walmart categorizes certain product as "Best Seller". If you select best seller it simply moves that label to the top.
Best Seller does not mean "The Best Seller" either. For one, it has 2 of the SKUs for XB1 as "Best Seller" which is imposible if they literally mean "The Best Seller".
Online space is not so different than brick and mortar retail. In traditional retailer vendors can pay for prime position which could help them gain more sales. The same happens in online space. MS Marketing could pay a premium to make sure their product shows 1st when someone clicks in.
I prefer sites like Amazon which use your purchase history and other products you have viewed to generate what is shown 1st.

add me, the more the merrier.
