    Heard tomorrow but cant be sure! Most probably a nasty rumour!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,000 ✭✭✭✭noodler


    Sony said no price cuts this side of Xmas.

    It seems hard to believe that Smyths would do this of their own bat.

    With Pro Evo 09 I imagine?

    From Sony's point of view, if they said there would be prices cuts back when they said there won't be, nobody would bother buying PS3 untill the price cut. They'd be shooting themselves in the foot reducing sales figures and profits.

    MS price cuts get leaked early and then they officially announce them a week before they actually happen.

    Well what Sony said was atcually more vague IIRC.

    Something like we have no price cuts planned.

    That deal sounds too good to be true


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,000 ✭✭✭✭noodler


    Its too much of a drop. If there is one it will be down to 300e.

    Sounds way too good to be true.

    YOu sure its not previously owned PS3's or maybe they are selling off any 40gb they have left over??

    i was in smyths earlier today buying guitar hero,no signs or anything about PS3 price drop..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 170 ✭✭djsim


    I was trust in Symths and no sign of the offer.

    On the plus side, the deal in HMV is great. 80Gig Model + big little planet and Fifa 09 for 399.99.

    Best Deal yet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 76 ✭✭eddie-n07


    Went into check at lunch time and no offer. They have the same offer for €409

    Sorry about getting anybodys hopes up!

    Dirty ejit anyway that told me!!:P

    There will be no price change between now and the new year. Sony confirmed it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,314 ✭✭✭RobertFoster


    Yes, but individual shops might make their own reductions/deals. Like Tesco's 25% off a couple of weeks ago.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,534 ✭✭✭Dman001


    And they maybe clearing out old 40GB models.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 973 ✭✭✭Super Sidious


    No doubt there will be a massive promotion for when Walmart/ASDA take over dunnes, hopefully the consumer wins!
