Either the PS4 is in THAT much demand, or someone is getting really desperate..


It's demand. Gamestop buys this PS4, and sells it back probably immedietely. Then they'll make money off games sales. It's a win-win for them.

 

I would never trade a PS4 for an X1 though, that's just ridiculous. 

Yeah, but how many games? How much would a USED PS4 go for if you're buying it for its price new, pretty much?

maybe they will try to sell those old consoles as new ones?

They sell the system in like a $600 bundle including extra controllers and what not.

Gamestop doesn't really make money off PS4s, but they make bank off of the accessories.

Being in a country without a gamestop and seeing one only once a year or on forums, this is a bit of a surprise.

Should have just purchased the Xbox One from the start if he wanted it that much. Instead he opts for the PS4 and then returns it 4 months, or maybe less, later.

Great deal, if true. The PS4 is worth a lot of money and GameStop knows it.

people calm down. Gamestop isoffering 50% extra trade in credit towards things. Im sure an XB1 would give you 500 dollars if you traded it in for a Ps4.

See the promo line? 133 dollars means it was really 260 + 50% =400.

sensationalist title to the max

I should have remembered that since I did the same thing with my PS3 for my PS4.
