It's a pricing mistake and will probably not sell to you at that much... but if it does, lol.

wtf? lol

EDIT: I read this review and this explains it:

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.

Amazon's description was originally the 60GB Phat PS3 model, talked nothing of a Move controller. This was distributed by Target
Target then ran the same price, but said it was a Move controller instead.


Lotta people bought Amazon's fake phat in hopes that Target will be a nice company and give them a true phat. Doubt it.
