Proto_Spark 09/17/20 12:47:05 AM #14:	well that's **. I mean, I was gonna get the cheaper version anyway, but still. If anyone else is interested in the lower tiers... PS5 disc-free 499 CAD XSS 379 CAD 500$ was about the price I was expecting for the PS5, I'm a little disappointed its only the disc-free version. fun fact, the 379 CAD is the price of buying a brand new PS4 now, so I think XSS is going to do well here. <cite>Proto_Spark posted [p:944708948] in Well the P...

The retailers have nothing to do with it, the prices on consoles are set by Sony/Microsoft themselves. The price of the XSX and PS5 in Australia are pretty much on par with the US price factoring in the exchange rate and taxes. Both consoles are cheaper in Canada than they are in the US (when it comes to the XSX it's a lot) factoring in the exchange rate, but it's weird that in one region Sony would maintain the price equivalency but in another they wouldn't. --- https://imgur.com/bbRWLI8 https://imgur.com/A0BErSV https://imgur.com/S1m3po4 https://imgur.com/7fCcfko <cite>Bio1590 posted [p:944710627] in Well the P...
