Seems some people have already succeeded.

If I was a Walmart manager I'd refuse to honor it. There's no possible way that a console that retails for $399 could legitmately be sold for $90.

Agreed, these Walmart managers must either be dumb or in on it.  That drastic of a price drop should've warn managers that something isn't right.

This really spread bad word of mouth.
No they start with 10$ Controller for Ps4 and Xb1

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.


You xbox fans are in for a shock when Sony wins NOV, a major retailer insider on GAF said this today for his entire district:

 

Well, guys - I wouldn't really count the month as already spoken for yet. Honestly, our districts had the big explosion of XB1 sales right at the beginning, but now, the PS4 is selling more than the XB1 again. And it's not even neck and neck for daily/weekly sales, the PS4 is selling just outright better again. And we're receiving a lot of questions about the PS4 bundles for BF, discussions about how early people are allowed to line up to be able to get those bundles...

GTA V is also selling definitively better on the PS4. We had a big rush of people picking up the console with that game. The price cut helped convince a lot of people that were on the fence right at the beginning of the month, but at this point... We'll have to see exactly how BF goes. I can't call it either way.

Ps4 sold better in New England at Best Buy the GTA V release week so far.

Without bias, eveything sounds so much better. Try it the next time :)

Why would new england teend be different then the rest of the country? Amazon and other insiders have said the same thing (No it was not just from the scam, ps4 been climbing for days and ahead of x1)...be in denial all yuo want, MS got a temp spike from a price cut and it's wearing off.

 

he has since stated he has looked at all north eastern US not just new england....and the trend is the same, and gamestop is also similar now too according to others.

 

Truth hurts.

Different retailer, different region, different demographics.

It's that easy

If u would follow this guys statements for all the year long in the NPD prediction thread, u would see the picture.
When the Ps4 was selling so much better in July and August in his stores, the Xb1 was just ~40k units behind in NPD. And now the Xb1 sold more in the fist two weeks and only lost the thrid (still only his store. other stores could be a different picture ofc). BF week will be telling

I don't doubt the Ps4 is selling more this week. Especially in his area shops. I just doubt ur conclusion. And it's kind of obvious. Ur a new 4 post Member (probably alt) with only one intention.
So if u want to talk about truth. Tell me who u are. But dare u to even use that word with an alt account doing a troll attempt or try for a console war fight.

Stats trends how do they work? If the entire north eatern US is selling more ps4's, in all likelihood the US is period....take a stats class in university...the Regular PS4 is outselling x1, let alone when the TLOU, GTA bundle drops. Nov is going to be close, and thats with MS throwing everything at it.
