well i was talking to my best friend that works at gamestop here in washington state and i found out some stupid things first gamestop employees get the $600.00 version of the ps3 for $400.00 us and they will all get there consoles on launch day gamestop decided to give 16 console reserves per store and would only allow 10 reserves to be reserved out to the public here in washington and the other 6 reserves go to there employees
now does anyone see red in this if we have to pay $600.00 for a console they should have to as well this sucks

I can't really see them knocking $200 off that hot of an item... I mean if a store has five employees that's 1,000 right there and as far as I know there is very little, if any, mark-up on the consoles themselves so the store is actually losing money.
Your friend just may be BSing you.
Wait until you see the sales slip.

I second that because i just asked the manger here at the store in Charlotte he told me that they have to pay full price also.He said they get price cuts on software not hardware.

Exactly. They don't get discounts on concoles but they actually do on other stuff. Mini things, like used games, or memory cards, controllers, little things like that. My brother is a jerk. >.<
