Despite predictions set by mega retailer Amazon, Sony Europe‘s head, Andrew House, has assured worried potential owners that the retail transition into the PS3 Slim will be seamless. However, since Sony has cut the price by their fat 80GB and their 160GB PS3 Uncharted bundle by $100, many retailers are claiming they have run out of stock of those respective units.
So unless Sony releases the PS3 Slim earlier than their planned September 1st date, retailers may be Ps3-less for some time.
“I’m very pleased with how we have managed our inventory system on the existing model.
“We’ve done that very well in the European market. There are trucks and trailers leaving right now – it’s on the road.”
