203 out of how many?

470

So Amazon sold 470 PS4s? That is funny since the actual number is around 80-90 thousand units sold.

My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

So... there are about 203 DOA PS4s out of close to 100k sold through Amazon, which would actually fall into that .4% rate of failure that was officially projected.

Think about it: if you received a DOA console, you would post a review, so to expect about 45,000 buyers who received DOA consoles to say absolutely nothing negative via review is not only a little unrealistic, it's completely unbelievable.

This does not happen a lot on forums, but I actually laughed.

Ladies,

I am not trolling. Just a short question:

Is this legit?

http://www.amazon.com/PlayStation-4-Launch-Edition/product-reviews/B00BGA9WK2/ref=cm_cr_dp_qt_hist_one?ie=UTF8&filterBy=addOneStar&showViewpoints=0

Sooo many DOA-Units?

Thanks

Signs that you are trolling:

- You call a 99% male Forum userbase "ladies".

- Your sig picture.

- You say Amazon sold 470 units of the hottest seller 2013 item (the true sales number would be around the 100k)

My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.
