What Happens with a Temporary Price Drop?
Almost two weeks ago, I captured the Amazon.com sales data on The Conduit and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare [Reflex]. I captured the data, because I was really suprised to see Call of Duty: Modern Warfare [Reflex] selling at a higher position on Amazon.com, than The Conduit was, at that time.
Well, nearly two weeks have passed since the last post, and some interesting things have happened.
The Conduit saw a significant price drop, from $49.99, down to $29.99. After The Conduit's price drop, it had a brief spike on the Amazon.com sales chart, but fell back pretty quickly to being ranked between 600-800 in video game sales on Amazon.com on a daily basis.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare [Reflex] kept continually climbing up the Amazon.com sales ranks, and has been sitting the "Top 100" for the last seven days.
On Wednesday, November 11, Amazon.com temporarily slashed The Conduit's price down to $18. The Conduit's sales immediately starting rising, it crossed into the "Top 100", and soon enough, passed Call of Duty: Modern Warfare [Reflex], as the picture above shows. Not only did The Conduit shoot way up in sales, but Amazon.com sold out, and now The Conduit is only available for purchase through some of Amazon.com's 2nd/3rd party vendors.
Did the temporary price slashing by Amazon.com help spur continued sales for The Conduit?
I decided to watch the sales over the last 24 hours, and the picture below shows the sales rank for both The Conduit and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare [Reflex] on Amazon.com 24 hours after the picture above.
If you haven't purchased The Conduit, do you plan on picking it up now at the MSRP of $29.99, or are you debating on purchasing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare [Reflex]? I myself did own The Conduit, and I'm now debating on buying Call of Duty: Modern Warfare [Reflex].
If you own both games, what are your opinions good/bad on both games?

As the picture shows, 24 hours later, The Conduit has fallen back beneath the sales rank of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare [Reflex]. I think it would be interesting to see how The Conduit would have kept performing had Amazon.com not run out of stock.
