pgdownload Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I presume there's some sort of legal reason stores don't make a killing on these sorts of releases? Why wouldn't Myer (for example) check out supply and demand and just say well at $2000 its still 'cheap' for the moment? As far as I know its illegal for a manufacturer to try induce a seller to limit their prices (just ask Topfield Regards Peter Gillespie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MELso Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Perhaps rather than an engagement ring he could've used the money to finance an economics degree... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeWhoElse Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I say, break open the PS3's gut them for parts, and design a new case, and just sell it as an expensive Blu-ray player...

Could sell both at $1500 US and make a profit, surely! This was a common practice when the ipod mini was first released. The 4gb microdrive was worth more standalone than the unit was selling for.
