[gimpsoft]

also interested on plz PM if anyone doing pick up batch

 

[andylawcc]

is it possible for them to sell below Sony's MSRP?

 

[Zbox]

Most retailers sell things below the MSRP line - MSRP is a hoax to make consumers "think" they're getting a good deal when something is sold below it.

My general rule is something is a rip-off unless it is selling for LESS THAN half the MSRP...

I bet once you go there the retailer will say that the item OOS. But you've gotta admit it's a good promotion to get new customers in. However this could be a glimpse of how low the price for the PS2 will eventual come.

I'll be heading out there in about an hour. I'll report back on what I find. I'll try to pick up a couple extra if I can.

I don't need one but my sister work a few blocks away form there, going to ask her to pick one up for me.

 

[jsfetzik]

Sorry for the delay in reporting back. I stopped by last night and they had about 80-100 of them out. Basic PS2 with one controler. Limit one per customer. I was in a hurry so I couldn't pick up any extras.

Also all vidoe game software is 25% off, although their selection is only so-so.

Just to let everyone know, FYE is selling ps2's for $150 with a $30 rebate. You can get an online adapter pack with ATV offroad fury in this deal. Picked one up today.

Even though you have to wait for a rebate, considering the game and the online adapter, it is well worth the wait and the extra $20.
