| FishyJoe said: My local Best Buy still has an enormous pile of 60 40gb PS3s on the floor. 360s are tucked under shelves in the normal locations. No Wii's of course. |
Is it just me or has anyone else observed that BestBuy and to a lesser extent Circuit City seem to have a deliberate policy of display size and location in the following hierarchy: 1st PS, 2nd XBox and the third tier of Wii, DS, and PSP all jammed together and as inconspicuous as possible. The PS gets the whole front row even though they have to use empty boxes and display material to fill it. By the time you get to the Wii's 1/2 isle things are piled on top of each other and the games are crammed with several in a slot, (because it shares the space with PSP), forcing you to go through each to see if a game is even there.
Since this display is the inverse of sales volume but in line with profit margins it looks like BestBuy is willing to completely screw the customer in hopes of squeezing out a few more dollars.
