Hmmm
Might almost be interested in getting one at that sort of price....
Are they still making a loss on each unit sold?

paying RRP is silly
I bought a 160GB PS3 complete with two games for £239 from Toysaurus a week ago. Game still have the 160GB listed at £199 (online only) although are currently showing as out of stock.
If the RRP drops to £200, it's possible some retailers could be selling at £150 or so.
Still couldnt pay me enough
...to buy one after the PSN fiasco they just had. Definately not buying a PS4 either.
