Can u buy PS3 s or 360 s straight from the factory where they are manufactured at, Game stop does it, can we?

Question

Ive been wondering, how does Gamestop make profit. what factory they buy from, Are their supplies shipped across seas to america where they can sell them at retail prices. Its not hard to find retailers, but all retailers get there supplies from someone and over prices it, I want to know who is supplying them.

Answer 1

Factories normally sell their products to distributers, not to the consumer end.

Chances are, if you will just buy a single unit, they will refer you to their distributors, outlets, or you might just be ignored.

Answer 2

not unless you buy several thousand units, those places will not return your calls because you are not worth their time.

also these places have contracts and to sell a unit to someone else would get them in trouble.
