Ps3 uk price

[Timewarp]

well its what gamestation is and remember we always get higher prices with psp in japan costing £107 on release when we get £180

I doubt this price is true... If you convert the US prices to GBP, it would be-

20 GB- 265.67 GBP
60 GB- 318.80 GBP

[ www.x-rates.com ]

Obviously, they won't do these exact prices, but I assume it will be somewhere around there... maybe...
279.99 20 GB & 329.99 60 GB or something similar.

We don't get the PS3 for the same price as the US because Europe gets the backside taxed out of it. Sony have confirmed the prices to be 499 and 599 euros, which is £340 and £410 respectively.

I don't think Europe is getting the low-end model either. I'll post my source if I find it again.

how are you sure thats its £425 and anyway if it is i would get it later so the money go's down

Various reliable gaming sources have already confirmed this.

The price for the PS3 in Euros is the same as in USD? Hmmm.... Strange.

Consoles are (1) Always more expensive in this country (extra shipping costs, smaller market), (2) The US prices are in dollars and don't represent the TAX they have to pay (different in different states), and we will have to pay 17.5% VAT for our tax, so it's more pricey.

I'd rather the higher tier model tbh.

Yeah... I always have to buy the most expensive version of everything, I can never go with the minimum...
