Gamestop Advertising a Layaway Program for the Xbox One, PS4 Doesn’t Have One
Gamestop is advertising a very interesting promotion. They’re advertising a layaway program for the Xbox One, but not the PlayStation 4. The Xbox One’s $500 price tag just might be enough to justify such a promotion, seeing as Gamestop probably drew a fine line between $400 and $500, on what could be considered affordable for a game console in one lump payment.

GS might be considering the One’s $500 price tag just a little out of reach for most consumers. Either that (or added to that), Gamestop is probably wanting to push more Xbox units out the door, considering the demand for the console being slightly less than the PlayStation 4, and to also empty up Xbox One inventory laying around.
@EmceeSchw3pp3 The Layaway program applies only to Xbox One systems.
