I am most likely getting a PS3 in the coming weeks (preferably after E3 to hear any possible announcements). I just have a quick question: I am debating on two places where I should purchase the console - Target or CostCo. I was thinking about Target because I can get 10% off, and CostCo since I heard that they have, pretty much, a lifetime return policy. The CostCo bundle goes for $699 (with MotorStorm and an extra controller), and if I purchase those things at Target it would be approx. $70 cheaper (which means another game). But I'm debating about CostCo because of their return policy if something happens to the system. Which do you guys think is the better deal -- saving $70 or having the lengty return policy?

Pretty sure Costco changed their return policy to 90 days on electronics. Target is pretty lax on returns in my experience, and if you get 10% off, then go for it! Keep in mind that Sony's warranty on the PS3 is a year. Also, wait until 7/1 to buy your console, so you can get in on the 5 free BD movie promotion!

yea thats what i was going to do...preferably after E3 goes down to see if sony announces anything in regards to a price drop or integration of the rumble again in the controllers

Not a big difference, but you'd only be saving $61 and some change.

Game consoles dvd players etc etc are excluded from the new policy. The new policy is for tv, pcs, etc.
