Australia prices:
Playstation 3 = $999.95
Xbox 360 = $649.95  ($499.95 bare bones version)
Wii = $399.95

Damn!

Bearing in mind that's AUS$.

AUS$1000 works out at about £424.80 from memory when I checked this morning, which strangely is almost exactly how much it is here.

True, it's £399.99 on Amazon.co.uk, so it's not much of a mark up, but when you already asking for so much an extra $60 doesn't go down well.
But why not I guess, because there are Sony fan boys and girls that happily parted with the amount.
I remember back when I got a bran new Master System II for Xmas, it cost $99

Ah those were the days....

The RRP of the PS3 is £424.99 but a lot of retailers are selling them at a cut price.


Edit: According to xe.com:

999.95 AUD = 424.989 GBP  Tongue

Europe always gets screwed on prices.

How can you guys really be that surprised?
