Amazon warnt vor PS3-Slim-Knappheit

Amazon US has warned of shortages of the new Slim Playstation 3 consoles which will hit the market in a month; as a result, the famous retailer is limiting sales to one unit per household.

"As you may know, the PlayStation 3 120 GB is in great demand, and there are shortages of this product across the US," Amazon wrote.

"In an effort to provide as many customers as possible with the opportunity to purchase PlayStation 3 120 GB, we are limiting the total number of PlayStation 3 120 GB units that can be purchased. As a result, each household may only purchase one PlayStation 3 120 GB unit."

Amazon UK has warned of similar shortages, and limited the number of units to five per person.
