xbox 360/ps 3/ wii boxing day discussion...

[BD006]

I personally see the 360 coming down in price or been more aggressivly bundled.

Microsoft is said to be makin 30% off each system, where as others are losing money just to put there system out in the market place. Also, it is generally known that gaming systems are sold at a loss but recovered through licensing and acessories sales.

Actually, from everywhere I've read, the Wii has been making money right out the gate.

don't even expect any ps3/wii deals this boxing day. Maybe the only deal is for them to actually have it in stock on boxing day

Was this guy drunk when he typed this post? On that account alone, its sketchy. But dang, if its true, i'm there. Couple this with VIP discount (*crosses fingers it applies*) and you got yourself a solid deal.

I just hope they have deals on PS3 sixaxis controllers. I doubt they will, but ya never know..


Does anyone remember if they had any deals on 360 controllers boxing day last year? Should be comparable this time around..

[danhenry]

If you're planning on buying a 360, I would highly suggest buying it now from staples. I doubt that they're going to have any serious sales on it for boxing day. Just add on the 2 awesome coupons they have going right now which ends up saving you 50 dollars. And if they do happen to have a boxing day sale, you might be able to go in and get a refund on it. Just a suggestion, that's what I did .

can you elaborate more on the deal and elaborate more on the 2 coupons you are referring to? Thank you.

I can't really see it going lower than the $450 mark the premium bundle has been hitting. I think the only thing they might do is mix up the games in the bundle, or add an accessory.

But I don't see it going lower than $450 overall.

RV, starting the 19th 'til Jan 1st, will be selling the XBOX360 Pro Holiday Bundle for $400.

and during boxing wk, they'll add in GOW for free as a bonus (thread in boxing day deals forum)

[syn3sto]

i wonder how the games sales are going to be like.

so RV is selling it for $400 starting today??? i phoned a few stores near where i live and they all told me it starts on the 26th. can you confirm that it starts today at any RV stores?

sorry. my mistake.

at 1st i assumed it starts today, ... despite the fact that the XBOX360 offers shown on the RV flyer pgs says Dec 26th to Jan 1st, the fine print on the bottom of the flyers say "prices and offers shown valid f/ Dec 19th to Jan 1st"


most stores prbly will follow the boxing wk sale date.... you'll be lucky if s/b at RV honours the deal today, or anytime before boxing day.
