We interrupt your program to bring you this special news bulletin.
Philip, our Chief Reviewer just gave me a call from one of our local Makro stores. Some good prices have come our way in the form of a sale. If you didn’t already know, Makro is running a special at the moment and have the PS3 40GB as well as the Xbox 360 Elite on sale for R3999.00.
Want one? Need another one? Just dying to burn the money in your pocket? Head to Makro and pick one up while the sale is still on.
[Thanks Philip and yes I realise that the above pic is not an elite][Update] We apologise for the mistake. As pointed out in the comments, the Elite is not going for any cheaper than usual. The PS3 40GB is still cheaper than usual so it is in fact a PS3 sale rather than a console sale.

um that’s not a sale… the Elite is already R3999 that’s RRP, as for the 40 gig I think it’s the same?
I think this sale is to fool you into thinking you’re getting a better deal!
now if it were an elite at R3500! or PS3 at the same price that’s a SALE!

I was under the same impression that the Elite was already R3999.Not sure about the PS3 but sounds about right.

PS. The standard price of the Elite is R3999.00, but the PS3 is, as far as I know, still sitting at an RRP of R4499.00, so that’s R500 off. That’s still a sale is it not?

like I said I’m not sure about the PS3 but the XBOX360 is still R3999 anywhere you look so maybe it should say PS3 Sale!
