 PS3 sales are further heading downhill according to the latest ebay auction data. When will it stop? Sony needs a massive price drop in my opinion because games will not help move such an expensive console. Most people (including myself) are waiting for a $300 price drop. Sony will not see a significant increase in sales until that price drop is done.

according to the latest ebay auction data.

Yeah, that means everything. :roll: When I buy expensive electronics, I don't want to purchase them from a brick and mortar store with a return policy and customer service department.

 

I want to buy them from a third party seller on eBay. And the Wii is still popular on eBay because it's sold out everywhere, and people love to make that profit. The Xbox 360. Well, I bet it's all used units getting dumped in favor of the Elite or another console. :lol:

I've noticed the Wii prices on eBay have dropped a little bit.

Damn, a 300$ price drop? You're saying the PS3's hardware is worth the price of an X Box 360 core...which it sure as hell is not. You might see a PS3 selling 300 bucks in 2017..but until then...

Ebay auction data.... what the hell could that possibly tell? If anything, it means PS3 is doing better because people are getting rid of their Wiis and 360s.

Wii's are still sold out everywhere, because people are buying them to sell on ebay.  I bought my ps3 and my wii in an actual store, why it's faster, and it's easy to return.  Plus no shipping fees, and i get 10% off at wal mart.  Saved 75 bucks on the ps3 and saved 30 on the wii.

..ya, I try avoiding buying anything online as much as possible until I can't find that item anywhere else. I find myself doing a lot shopping online though. :(
