Those filthy cheaters. Everyone knows PS4 sales rank didn't rise due to GTAV, FC4, LBP3 or even DA:I. It rose only because of a few bogus listing at $50-$90.


can somebody explain how the bogus listing raise the rank on amazon? isnt it a scam to scam wallmart? 


According to foodfather it goes up by page hits.

But still, the scam prices allow you to put the consoles in your cart to make it seem legit to Wal-mart.

that makes no sense. dont you need to buy it so it can register?

i get how it works with wallmart, pretty genius if you ask me. they techinically didnt break the law either, pretty badass.

Why didn't XB1 go to the top too because of the scam?


They did get a massive rise,  just not as much as the PS4.


from #226 to #29 for the normal kinectless sku
from #46 to #36 for the kinect asscreed bundle (within the range of the ps4 white destiny bundle bump)
from #74 to #55 for the cod 1tb bunde

and why all the other skus (includig the white destiny bundle) went slower is obvious. the scam try happedn way later, when amazon was already on it.
and maybe even some of the normal customers were aware on this stuff that time finally. if u see a fucking cheap ps4 on amazon u place an order and hope for ur luck. if u see tens of new to good to be tue offers for every console on amazon, u maybe get that something has to be wrong.

the hourly is fucked up for a few days now. lets see and wait for it to normalize

That's why I thought putting it in your cart made more sense.

But yeah its not like they can arrest you for finding a deal.

I was gonna do it by calling up my mom and telling her about it. She has no problem arguing with clerks and takes no bullshit lol.

I probably would have walked out looking dumb if they said no.

This is why most stores will only match if it's sold by Amazon. Third party sellers won't be matched.

Some Wal-mart employees aren't that smart to know that its a 3rd party seller since it doesn't take you to another page when putting it in your cart.



PS4 $110. It just won't stop
