Forums - Sales - Amazon having great deals on 360 and PS3

It seems that amazon is doing deals all round, the Xbox 360 Slim is available for £ 159 instead of its normal price of close to £200. This is a great deal if you are looking to get into the xbox 360 or buying the PS3 which has also been reduced to £192

yup while the xbox 360 is the currency equivilant of usa $300 just about everywhere except australia where it retails for equivalent of $450, The ps3 is only the equivalent of $300 in USA and japan, being more expencive elsewhere.

It's not an amazon initiative, they are just price matching Tesco who are a supermarket in the UK.

 

Basically a week or so ago Tesco reduced all gaming related softwareconsolesaccessories by 20% as a promo that runs until the 27th. Amazon have simply matched this since yesterday for the Xbox 360 and since a few days for the PS3.

 

You can ge the Xbox 360 Kinect for £239 on the Tesco website and instore for example.

It's got nothing to do with the dollar or euro or pound value.

 

It's just a promotion :)

Yes,

 

The Xbox 360 is basically £200 and the 160GB PS3 is roughly £230.

 

If you shop online, or have a bit of a look on the high street you can get the Xbox 360 for about £185 and the PS3 160GB for about £220 most of the time.

 

 

This current price won't hold long, soon as Tesco end the promotion Amazon will put the price back up.
