PS3 Out of Stock at Amazon.com

While the PS3 is still siting at the top of Videogame bestsellers, Gamers looking to snag Amazon.com's PS3 deal will have to wait for stock to be replenished as the online retailer seems to be sold out at the moment.

[deepujatt2005]

where it says its sold out?

[Snake_Doctor]

If you look it only has marketplace options (same as Wii), and Bloodmask no this wasn't posted before as far as I am aware. Do you have a link?

Edit: @sony fan
Cute, or I could say microsoft freelancers (or paid posters) are really on the defensive after E3 and any positive PS3 news irritates you more than bad taco meat. See what i did there?

[sony fan]

Yay, lets find any and every little thing about a playstation actually selling and post it like news. Sure does make me feel better, as a sony fan I need a lot of reassurance, a lot, over and over that it will get better. No matter how rediculously pathetic the "news" is.

[Mr VideoGames]

ya it is really getting TIRING seeing this stuff, i want News not info that the PS3 Finally made a SELL cause as a 360 Owner i don't need Asurance i know we have a Good Console

[sony fan]

I would appreciate anything anyone might say, I am only sony fan because they are the funniest to act like. I don't care what you say as long as it is anti-fanboy, you are welcome to be MS fan if you want. i Will be soon.

[Bloodmask]

this Amazon article posted already?

I know PS3 sales are up....I just thought I read this story about Amazon yesterday.

[nurayi]

the article you are remembering was either the amazon sales increase one (#1 on amazon sales list since), or the sold out at circuit city. if your a gamer you'll be looking to get one too, before you cant find any :)

[Bigmac573]

Awesomeness!

[Odion]

honestly how many freaking Amazon posts are we going to see??? The elite and Wii are sold out 2, we don't make crap about it all the time

[nurayi]

if it doesnt interest you move on

[SAMMAN7]

compusa is running out too "not availible in-store" and limited to 1 per customer online.

The point is Elite is purposely in short supply, as is Wii - but the latter is higher demand.

Now PS3, in full demand is sold out at Amazon, putting it in the same league as Wii (obviously not in sales, just in comparison), which is I guess the "good" kind of sold out. Furthermore, PS3 is not purposely in low supply. 60GBs were packing up shelves, but will probably be shipped less and less as the 80GB launches and drops to 500 soon to replace it.

[Blankman]

this price cut must have caught everyone off guard. Sony needs to re stock these locations asap while they still have this on their side. I see potential to break 4million this month

[Odion]

the point is we've had almost 10 of these in the past 10 days this site has been complete dumped on when the same stories over and over again

[Snake_Doctor]

So what, if you don't like this 'news' don't read it or at least don't waste your time posting on it. Simple solution.

[i Shank u]

i think the main point is, the article was updated within 15 hours saying amazon has them back in stock. doesnt sound like that big of news, being out of stock for half a day. It doesnt sound like much of a sell out, 1 retailer(online retailer) for little time

[ALIEN]

All i have to say is, COOL!

[gEnKiE]

i just bought the last one at best buy and everywhere else ive gone theve been sold out and normaly the shelves would be full of them. things are starting to turn around it seems :)

[SF49er408]

get over the xbox vs. sony. we dont want sony to fail. because of the competition we get killzone, n it only makes ms sweat more to keep workin harder. its good they finally sellin some consoles

[Snake_Doctor]

Bubble for the post

[ShiftyLookingCow]

You get the "Best Comment of E3". +1 bubble from me

[i Shank u]

competition means better prices, console options, and quality games. and fanboys

[BIadestarX]

Yes.. I went to amazon today in order to buy a PS3 ... they were giving 6 Blu-ray movies and the media remote control. Was sold out....
It was a really good deal. I'm going to wait a little longer to buy my PS3.. as soon warhawk comes or when I find a similar deal.
Anyways... I went ahead and use the money on an xbox 360 elite... I know.. I know.. I already own a Premium... but with all the stories about ROD... better safe than sorry... I will put one in my bedroom and the elite on my living room... now if one breaks I always have one available. I went to buy the wii too... but was sold out too... I was trigger happy today...

[Crotin]

Damn...well if you have the money lol. I'm thinking of buying an elite before Halo 3 comes, but anyway back on topic, looks like Sony is back on track. And then on July 26th, the PS3 is bundled with Hot Shots Golf 5 for the Japanese and already has 300,000 preorders. The next-gen script is really starting to turn around for Sony, woo hoo!

[SAMMAN7]

damn!

[StateofMind]

@ Crotin

Do you have a link to back that up? That's pretty impressive. What's the release date on it?

[ngoniko]

ok let me get this straight... 300k of game preordered or 300k ps3 with game bundle preordered?

link?

[Crotin]

http://ps3.qj.net/category/...

And yeah it's of the game, not of the bundle

[AznSniper]

I can probably see it sell around 400,000 to 500,000 first week sales then

[ShiftyLookingCow]

I recommend you get PS3 now if you want the 499 model. I heard they are going to phase it out soon. As for the backup 360, I understand. Mass Effect is going to stress my 360 to its limit.

[XxZxX]

Guys, it is in stock again, better hurry to get the 6 blu-ray deal and 1 remote deal. Because that's like $150 in saving for $499.99, even if you wait until the end of the year, i dont think you can find one for $350.00.

[funkysolo]

I have a PS3 and ELite, but my son only has a 360 and I'm thinking about selling to get him a PS3. This is a good deal to pass up 6 free blu ray movies...I'm going to ask him what he wants to do tommorow

[likeaboss302]

That would be foolish for a couple reasons. One is because the five Blue-ray titles offered aren't the best. Second and most importantly MS has a much better fall game lineup. Why sell the 360 and miss out on all those good games? Just hold off till 08 when all the PS3 heavy hitters are out.

[ApocalypseShadow]

fanboys say,"why is it on the shelves."

when it's selling out because of a price drop,now it's"they must not have had that many."

it's d@med if you do,d@med if you don't.ps3 will never look good in the eyes of the extreme fanboys.

i say ignore them.good job sony.

[unsunghero28]

One could just as easily say that when it's on shelves Sony fanboys say "Sony just has great supply" and when it's off shelves they're saying "Sony just has great demand."

But I do agree with you that this is good news. But what we need to keep in mind is that the Wii is ALWAYS sold out, so until Sony releases those stellar titles they won't blow the other two consoles out of the water.

That's what I love about this industry, it's always a competition...

[daveman3]

i think both the price drop and the awesome e3 showing sony had is contributing to the rapid sales

[freak27]

hey guys you know if i can buy from from amazon cause im from europe..I want a ps3..Is it possible or it's only USA??

[Kratosnake]

I believe it is... but there might be a difference in taxes or something. The PS3 itself is region-free, so technically u can.

[timmyp53]

amazon news i frequent though

[TLSBill]

PS3 = get it now, because the emotion engine is going away with the 60gb, and you will want to play your old games once in a while.

360 = Wait for the "Falcon" hardware to come out. The 65nm process & updates should keep the red ring away and by then, they will probably have a price drop also. Yes, they extended the warranty, but why buy a console that could get you 1/2 way through a game, then you have to send it in for repair and it's gone for a few weeks.

I will be buying the 360 after the new hardware, Mass Effect & PGR4 look too good to pass up.

[Lucky232]

Why do 360 fans and supporters keep saying wait until 2008? The best PS3 games may very well be in 2008, but the majority of potential AAAs come out in 2007.

And IMO blow everything except Crysis out of the water.
