Parker Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 For those who haven't purchased a PS4 yet, this is the best deal you're going to see for a long time. For some people the price of a new next-gen console is still a little too high. The retail price in North America for the PS4 is around the $400 mark, so it’s a nice surprise to see that retailer Kmart is offering the console for $200. Yes, that’s a two with two zeros. Originally spotted by NeoGaf user SalvaPot, we’ve decided this is a cracking offer worth writing about. There is a catch – for the time being you may have some difficulty buying online, however, some people are having more luck by going into their local store. So, if you happen to live within a fair distance of a Kmart, and you’re in the market for a PS4, you should probably get down there ASAP. Now, there’s another option. You could try price matching with other retailers if you’re not able to get to a Kmart store. Maybe you were banned for being drunk and naked, but that’s not our business. Often, other big stores will give you a price-match guarantee where they will match the price of a product if you can find it cheaper elsewhere, sometimes even offering gift cards as bonus extras.. Worth a shot? Probably, so check it out or pass it onto a friend if you’re not interested.

Dr_Mayus Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Damn KMart left Canada a long time ago Well good luck to everyone. Chances are 1 guy will buy up most of them and then resell them on the side . I know that happened when I was still working for Playstation and Wal-Mart dropped the 320 PS3 down to 199 (to try and outsell Best Buy and EB) and a group of guys hit every single Walmart in Winnipeg and bought them all up before I could even get there with signage. The staff were so happy when I arrived telling me "look Sean, we sold completely out" and I asked back "did you sell anything else alongside those PS3?...No? Then your store made about -3000$ profit" And then what a surprise, PNP Games had a huge sale of 320G PS3 the next day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr_Mayus Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Weird.. I been to kmart and hardly carry any games. Well if you go by their website I don't think they carry much games either. Check out those SWEET preorder games they have. GTAV, Madden 25, Battlefield 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parker Posted August 16, 2015 Author Share Posted August 16, 2015 I just called my local Kmart and they still have some in stock. So while you may not be able to purchase it online, your local store could have some in stock. Parker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parker Posted August 16, 2015 Author Share Posted August 16, 2015 Remember, if you have a different store near you that will price match that should work too. There are people posting online that Wal-Mart is honoring this deal as well. Parker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExHaseo Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 They were also selling 360 bundles for $25. http://m.kmart.com/microsoft-xbox-360-4gb-console-with-kinect-holiday/p-018W005879107001P I'm guessing they're getting rid of their gaming department, and just want everything gone.

Wdjat Prinny Doods Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 I honestly don't know how K-Mart is still in business. For the past few years the K-Mart's around are usually dead, generally having like 1 or 2 shoppers in the store at a time doods I'll have to see if any are still open around here to see about getting one as an early B-day gift for my little brother or see if Wal-Mart will do the price match doods.

MStalker58 Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Yeah Kmart has been phasing out their games department. The one next to my house hasn't had any for the past 6-8 months. All they have left is some old cheap games in a bargain bin type thing. Another thing, when I was researching this deal it seems to be pretty confusing. Apparently, it's not an active sale (some people say it is an older sale). You can't pull it up on their website and the only way you can view it is by using the exact URL posted below. http://m.kmart.com/sony-playstation-4/p-018W006374751001P Some people have said they went to places like Wal-Mart and attempted to price match the offer. Most people were denied and Wal-Mart either said it's not a real deal, couldn't pull it up for themselves to verify, or couldn't price match because all they carry are bundles and the offer was for the base version. However, some people have said they got lucky and the employee just glanced at the ad and matched the price for them. Basically, you have to pull this ad up on your phone, show it to them, and hope they accept it without asking many questions. If they try to pull it up for themselves by going to Kmart's site, they won't be able to find it. Worth a try though if you are in the market for a PS4.

Kishnabe Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Reminds me of the Target Canada clearance.....PSVita for 100, PS3 160 GB for $40, XBOX360 $45...... Wished they were still around to clear their PS4;s.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sucks though as when Superstore in Canada was phasing out their gaming section they didn't reduce anything In fact I was in my Superstore a month or so ago and they still have like a dozen copies of Wonderbook for full price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, good luck with that dood, here in NY zero chances to find one and the only walmart I found with "1" ps4 in stock it stated they need the ad (which I find nowhere), they're not accepting the cell phone app to honor the PM. And yes, the ad I'm talking about it would be like BB does, in pages -flier-. not just a picture of the product in your cell phone. But at this point it's understandable, browsing the web it seems that this deal was known since Friday.

Masamune Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Damn, I'd buy that just to have a spare PS4 just in case. Too bad I don't have a Kmart around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatar_Of_Battle Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Walmart near me won't honor the price match deal. The piece of crap I dealt with was trying to sell me some bullshit that the nearest kmart is like 20 minutes away and it's not close enough. And that their online advertisements aren't enough for them to honor the deal they need a physical flier. (never heard this before EVER because people have used online fliers before on other deals.) lmfao and then he said his manager probably wouldn't do it because it was a $200 difference. Not that it mattered apparently every walmart in this crap state doesn't sell what they called "regular" ps4's. They either have the arkham knight bundle or the one that comes with the last of us which is still $399.99. Swing and a miss I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Target didn't seem to have a problem with the advertisement but KMart is not on Targets price match list. Best Buy shut me down too.

Target didn't seem to have a problem with the advertisement but KMart is not on Targets price match list. I printed out the link posted in OP and walmart said it needed to be a "physical" advertisement despite knowing about the deal going on. I called Target as well since I know someone that works there. They listed almost every store in existence but I guess Kmart was that ONE store they didn't deal with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STFUxDxD Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Looks like all of the Kmarts around my area are permanently closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G10BURGERKING Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Kmart doesn't sell video game anymore in my local. Only one way is that you have to go to Wal-Mart and Target then match the price! My cousin tried to go to Wal-Mart but all they have is bundles not the console standale. so close! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
