If you referring prices on Sony PS4 official site, they basically giving retailer prices, and every model has $299 price point except that BF deal for $199 that's out of stock. In other words, Sony did not announce new official price for PS4, this $199 is just Black Friday deal.

It is the office price from Sony for a week (November 19 to November 27, 2017).  It is not just a Black Friday deal from a retailer, but official Sony price for a week.  I have seen this price in stores that are not major retailers for electronics, such as JC Penny (manly clothes), etc...

I think you need to make clear difference between official price and current Black Friday deal (even when comes from Sony), this is just temporary Black Friday deal it want be official price. But yeah, we can say that is official price for Black Friday. :)

You are saying that $199 is new official price for 1TB model!? Pls link for such a claims.

BF is just a current deal, it's not official price point. And actually some people here think that PS4 is generally sold out, not only $199 version.

In any case, headline of this thread is fixed and now is more accurate.

Yes, I was saying that PS4 1TB and 1TB bundles were regulary selling at $300 and lower price point despite higher regular price point, but I dont see how this is conflicted with this $199 deal that is just for Black Friday.

I am not triggered, I just bringing a clear fact, and that is that PS4 is not generally sold out like some people thinking, and that point is that just $199 BF price tag is not any more available.

In any case, headline of this thread is fixed and now is more accurate.

It is the official price point to this week and may be the official one for the next year or for another deal on Xmas. Still, case in point, discussion is about BF, it's clear on OP so your jabs are pointless here... weren't you the one that sweared that you didn't play down Sony and PS4?

For unreasonable person like you every person is economy specialist. ;)

Its temporary deal for Black Friday, but yes, we can say that's official price for one model for one week also. And that's a point, it wasn't clear in OP, and actually some people thought that PS4 is generaly sold out in any case (not just for $199 price point). And I already wrote,  headline of this thread is fixed and now is more accurate. First I never swear, and second how in this case exactly I downplay Sony and PS4!?
