Yesterday we reported that Sony were selling Resistance: Burning Skies on the US PSN Store digitally for the full RRP of the game – $40. Here’s the original story.
Shortly (very shortly) after that post, Sony dropped the price, down $4 to $35.99. That’s better, but still a poor show given the massively reduced manufacturing costs of the digital version.
Although the time period that the game was ‘full price’ was short, naturally people bought the game, but according to one customer service rep, Sony aren’t giving out refunds for the difference.
There’s a post here on GAF apparently detailing an email reply regarding the $4 difference.
“Unfortunately, we cannot offer a credit due to the price decrease. I know how frustrating this is for you and I sincerely apologize,” says the rep.
The email then goes on to remind the gamer about a warrantee…

this happens all the time with other things seems a bit entitled attitude to me.

This may sound like people moaning over a few bucks but law dictates that if a store lowers it’s price of an item and it is within 14 days since the consumer purchased it they must refund the difference!
