Why is Medal of Honour Vanguard so cheap?

Joseph

Because it's on PS2?

Why is Wii (console), Wii Play and Warioware at Target being listed as a bargain when they are RRP?

bluejay

because standard consumers are morons and will believe anything they are told

Joseph has just covered everything advertised in the catalogue, regardless of how great a saving it was (or not at all).

it's amazing how many catalogues show items as being on "sale" when the price advertised is the actual RRP

Wii Play's RRP is actually $79.95. I think it might be the same for WarioWare too.

Yeah, Wii Play and WarioWare have the RRP of $79.95. You're saving yourself $10 each at Target.

I see iPods advertised every other week, and none of them are more than $3 cheaper than RRP, and they're usually just full price.

Annoys the hell out of me.

As well as Harvey Norman saying they won't be beaten on price on the PS3, even though they were selling it for $999 and not matching prices from other stores. It's just "imaginative" advertising and everyone trusting them to deliver. WoW Sight and Sound had PS3s for $978 or something today, I'm pretty sure that's beating HN's price.

In the general gaming forum there's a thread titled "EB 2 for 50" or something like that and there's a huge list in there.
