Any word / rumour of a SO bundle re-stock?


Only Major Nelson and other MS people saying get one while you can because the numbers are scarce. Will most likely be back by black friday.


Yet they are in stock and stayed in stock at BB,Target and Walmart.

As for your comment towards me.It's sad that you don't realize the AC bundle was never in the top 20 til the price cut,which has zero to do with my post or point anyway.That bundle will fall clearly.

This entire post is full of lawlz , so misinformed , ,

Impressive how those psn vouchers sell.


They're used worldwide and don't require shipping. 


Really? Because it doesnt work like that if you buy it in different european countries. The voucher only works on the shop of the country you buy it on.

Good if it does though.

Nah I think he means that people use the America PS Store all over the world and instead of needing an American credit card, they buy these PSN cards all year round. So these aren't solely being bought by US people.

I do have an American PSN account but never bought a PSN card

If you get a Us psn card on amazon, do they  send you a code by email ? If so, it's good and everyone can buy it, even EU.

From Amazon:

Currently, this item is available only to customers located in the United States and who have a U.S. billing address.

 

After purchase, you can access the item in Your Games Library.

 

So you cannot purchase this with a billing address outside of the US.  The comments above about the PSN cards being on top because of people outside the US are unsubstantiated and false by virtue of the terms on Amazon.

 

Of couse, objective reality has many detractors.

It goes to your Amazon games library because its a digital purchase. The same place a PC download would go.

You can use any US amazon account to buy codes.

How? It clearly says you need a US billing address, not just a US account, and since billing addresses are connected to payments,  you are insisting that PSN cards Amazon domination are basically acts of fraud.  Or not all of it but most of it?

By using a method of payment such as a gift card/debit card as long as you set up a US billing address. Plenty of people switch their payment methods or console accounts to US for anything that costs more in their own country. Which is a lot of things. And the people that know most about it are on the internet constantly. 

Amazon and Play-Asia are the easiest ways to get digital online codes. Amazon started selling codes last year (I think) so people took advantage.

There's even articles on it: http://wololo.net/2013/06/27/how-to-purchase-us-psn-cards-from-amazon-when-you-dont-live-in-the-us/

OP updated. Assassin's Creed still going strong. Sony need to announce at least one new bundle for this month at a great price if they want to catch up, at least on amazon

Hmm... im not sure Sony needs to announce a new bundle, its sales are solid. I think Microsoft's own deals need to hold steady to beat the PS4.  The PS4's greatest advantage is its consistency.  It can win just by holding the same spot all month.

I'm not convinced right now.  To win the month in the current situation (using Amazon so not exactly perfect) then by the end of the month the top two skus need to be the regular PS4 and the Destiny bundle by some distance to make up for multiple X1 skus doing well. I don't see that happening at this stage
