Yeah this site just resells keys. :)
Thanks for the info. Somehow I had conflated them.
Umm , Build your own Tiny Build Bundle!
Also Fanatical has a THQ-Nordic sale going on:

Worth it for Guts and Glory. Amazing.
Hey all, I’m considering getting a PS4 or a PS4 Pro this holiday season, and there’s a Costco “members only price” bundle that includes a PS4 Pro, a Sony wireless headset, a physical copy of Spider-Man and an extra “DS4 controller with Fortnite Bonus Content” for $560 +10 shipping. Bargain? I suppose I could sell off the extra controller + Fortnite stuff since that’s of no interest to me.
I’m sure there will be lots of bundles available, of course.
That better be a great headset, because you can get the PS4 Pro at $399 retail and Spiderman is $60.

Possibly worth it if it’s the Gold headset, but there will be better deals in the next month or so.
Yeah I am thinking PS4 PRO his $299 this holiday season.
There is a $50 price drop on the ps4 pro happening in japan shortly. Not confirmed to be heading to usa i think, but it seems pretty damn likely.
Even without that…
ps4 pro: $400
Spiderman (full price) $60
DS4 gamepad ($60, but on sale right now on amazon for $41)
Sony gold headset ($100, but on sale right now on amazon for $73)
So at full price, we’re looking at 620.
Using easily available sale price, you’re looking at 574. You could also probably get spiderman for sale at least a little bit if you were willing to wait i imagine.
You will 99% get a better deal during the actual holiday season if you can wait, and that is assuming you actually need all of that stuff.
I would fully expect ps4 pro to drop in price just in time for holiday season too.
So in short, don’t buy a ps4 now unless you have a rare disease that will cause you to die unless you buy one in the next month.
I took a look at the bundle… first question is do you need a second controller? If not, you should wait.
If you do, then here’s the MSRP of all items in the bundle…
PS4 Pro = $399.99
Spider-Man = $59.99 (probably less on its own at Costco?)
Controller = $59.99
Wireless Gold Headset = $99.99
That’s approximately $620 of retail value and the Fortnite extras are like $20 worth of stuff I think. It’s an ok bundle at that rate.
Realistically as @Murbella notes, you can get those things on sale soon for less (or even right now). I suspect Spider-Man will be $40 or less at least on Black Friday. The Gold Headset often gets a sale at $59.99 somewhere before the holidays. Dual Shock 4’s go for as low as $39.99. The Pro may get a price drop, but it will surely have at least a Black Friday deal.
If it were me, I’d wait.
You can also use any old bluetooth headset or corded headset that you already have.

At least on Black Friday. The prior low has been $350, IIRC.

Corded, yes, BT not so much. Tried it the other day and if it was ever in the PS4’s feature set, it’s not in there now.
Well, I’ll certainly keep my eyes open, but those super discounted console deals on BF are usually in-store only (and eff that noise) or, if online, instantly sold out, right?
And thanks everyone for the replies.

Not instantly, but pretty quickly and you can’t wait around all day. I picked up my PS4 last year for 199.99, but it wasn’t because I was some sort of bot or had magic fingers. The 199.99 PS4 wasn’t sold out especially fast. I think it was…everywhere too, like in stores i didn’t even know sold consoles. Sony planned that one pretty big time.
Pro should be lower than 350 this year or at least have nicer bundles.
I would be surprised if you didn’t get a better deal from general holiday sales, not even black friday.
Isn’t there a Red Dead Redemption 2 PS4 Pro bundle coming out for $400? That’s a pretty decent deal at launch, since RDR2 will be $60, essentially making the Pro $340.
Of course, that’s only the case if you are really interested in RDR2, obviously.
Looks like it’s sold out at Amazon though, but Best Buy, Gamestop and Walmart have it for pre-order.
There are a bunch of sales/price drops at Best Buy… I checked PS4 but Xbox One/Switch is similar if available there.
Dragon Quest XI - $49.99
Monster Hunter World - $29.99
Madden 19 - $39.99
Street Fighter 30th Anniversary - $29.99
Injustice 2 - $19.99
Dark Souls Remastered - $29.99
Resident Evil VII Biohazard Gold - $29.99
Dragon’s Crown Pro - $29.99
Devil May Cry HD Collection - $19.99
Ni No Kuni II - $39.99
I think for bluetooth on PS4 it has to be certified. That means the Sony stuff is about it. Corded is the way to go though. Just plug into the controller with the 1/8" jack on the front. You’re still wireless from the console.
