The standard PS3 system is listed as $40 on Amazon and Target for some reason. It seems like an obvious mistake, but a ton of people have ordered it, so we'll see what happens!

Quoting: "hopefully you are like me and are really checking this out to see if this deal is for real. hopefully you will also be reading this review... I was skeptical and i checked a whole lot of sites to see if this was a real deal or not. IT IS NOT! Slickdeals.net says it is a typo - the product you think you are buying (the 60gb older model ps3 console - fat version) is actually a PS3 Move controller - Shooter Grip for $39.99. i googled to find out if this deal was real... slickdeals.net - (their forum) confirmed it for me. it is a big typo. target's website takes you to Move controllers as well for this deal, while amazon has it listed as the 60gb console. some ppl are saying it is an old model from 2006 or a refurb, but other sites confirmed by ppl who bought this thing that it really is a PS3 Move Advanced Shooter Grip controller.
other testimony from slickdeals.net: I called a local Target store and asked for the item description based on the DPCI. They said it's a shooter grip. This is bait and switch indeed. At checkout, it says PlayStation 3 Move Advanced Shooter Grip (PlayStation 3) and makes it clear you are not actually buying a PS3.If you buy through the amazon.com link, it clearly states playstation 3 even in the emailed confirmation. READ THE TEXT ON AMAZON. It says fulfilled by Target. I'm sure it's also a mistake. "
To sum up;
DON'T BUY IT. IT IS JUST A CONTROLLER FOR PS3!!
Here's a quote from one of the reviews "If this isn't true, amazon will definitely honor a refund. I just talked to customer support and they told me that if this is a mistake, I will be able to withdraw my order."
So you might as well order it from Amazon. Anyways, just thought this was something cool.
