"Sign up for the Sony Visa Card and receive a free $100 credit after your first purchase of $299 or more at SonyStyle.com. That's the best Sony Visa deal we've seen since June. The credit will appear on your statement within 12 weeks of the required purchases.
A best bet is to purchase the new slimmer, lighter Sony Playstation 3 120GB Console for $299.99. (It's the second system down on that page.) After the Sony card credit, it falls to $199.99. With free shipping, it's tied as the lowest total price we've seen for this system. Sales tax is added where applicable. The new model PS3 features built-in 802.11g wireless, Bluetooth, HDMI out, and, of course, a Blu-ray player."
Hope you all can use this. I'd love to get one for $200, but I don't see myself playing very many games anymore not on the PC, and the new PS3s are not PS2 backward compatible (deal killer for me).

It's great that people want to post deals they find on fatwallet. Then there are those people that just complain about everything. True it's not a hundred dollar coupon code or anything but there are plenty of people that will now benefit from this post. So stop being so harsh on the Op's. Good job OP! Green for you

He was not being harsh he was just being honest, the title is very misleading. I am happy that people post deals on FW too, I just wish they would post them more accurately.
It's in the OP's post that there's a credit card sign-up, and honestly, if someone thinks there isn't some type of catch for a $200 PS3, then they're being unrealistic. Either way, the OP did a good job describing the deal. Excellent opportunity for someone looking for a PS3 and not minding a credit card sign up.

What part of "Title is Misleading" dont you understand? Also, who exactly is questioning that plenty of people will or will not benefit?

just thought I'd throw this previous post in... if you're signing up for the credit card... use this link.... previous post
SonyStyle.com just cut its price. if you're good for the Sony card signup, and you end up using the card for stuff a lot, you can get the 80 gig free now (and now also the 120 gig slim) sonycard offer
read all the fine print: SonyStyle said:1. Your first single sales receipt of any products or services purchase(s) made at SonyStyle.com only, equal or greater than $299 ("Qualifying Purchase") within the first 45 days your account is open will automatically qualify you for the first $100 Statement Credit. 3. You will qualify for a second $100 card credit when you charge to your Sony Card account an additional $1,500 within the first 3 months of account open date. You will qualify for a third $100 card credit when you charge to your Sony Card account an additional $1,500 by your 6 month anniversary. Limit of three (3) $100 card credits to each new Sony Card account, after each qualifying spend limit is met within the specified timeframes described above. This offer may not be combined with any other Sony Card or PlayStation® Card offer.
100 bucks for buying it on SonyStyle. 100 bucks after 3 months, as long as you spent another 1500 bucks on the card. 100 bucks after another 3 months (6 months total) as long as you spent another 1500 bucks on the card.
total needing to be charged on the card = $3300: 300 in first 45 days (for the ps3) 1500 within 3 months (total 1800) another 1500 within 6 months. (total 3300)

Don't forget that one may not have to purchase goods to get your spending benefits on cards such as these. If you're going to college and paying cash or getting reimbursed, pay for it with the card then pay the card right off, and meet your $3k spender line quick.
Bills such as your insurance, communications, etc, can often take most Visa & MasterCards, then pay the card right off with the check you were going to send directly in for the bill.

If you had bought your original 80gb PS3 with a decent credit card of some kind, you would have gotten a 2nd year of warranty coverage for free. FYI, the Sony Card has this benefit and they call it "Warranty Manager Service" (its offered thru Visa). Most AMEX cards come with it, but not all MC and Visa cards. If its not too late, call your credit card issuer and see if you are eligible.
The Sony CC offer seals this for me. I'm trying to pitch it to the wife as a blu ray player. We were looking for a different CC anyway after some less than desirable experiences with the "support" with our Chase rewards card. Thanks for re-linking the older post attgig!

That's awesome. I just booted Chase as well because they thought it was smarter to not reverse a late fee and lose a good customer versus reverse it and keep me. They stated "based on the current economy" crap. So, based on the current economy, it's better to charge $40 and lose my business then having me stay on as a customer. I'm not sure where the logic is in that. It's not like I was a chronic offender...
Well, I cashed out my rewards, canceled that card, applied for another one of the Chase cards for a $50 sign on bonus and will promptly cancel that as soon as I get my $50. Essentially, they paid me $10 to leave. Now it looks like Sony will be my new card!!
Ok, well I'm dumb. This is a Chase card too. Well, they can keep me and pay me another $300 before I leave!
