Raleigh, NC -- Wal-Mart claims former North Carolina Senator John Edwards asked his local Wal-Mart store for help in getting a hot new Sony PlayStation 3.
The potential 2008 presidential candidate says a volunteer made the call by mistake, and feels terrible about it.
Edwards, a prominent critic of Wal-Mart, had taken part in a conference call Thursday with union-led activists who are trying to pressure the company for better labor standards.
Wal-Mart says the same day, an Edwards staff member asked a Raleigh electronics department manager to obtain a PS3 for the ex-senator's family.
A company statement accuses Edwards of not wanting to wait his turn.
Edwards says it was a volunteer who made the call after hearing the Edwards family wanted a PS3.
Edwards also says the volunteer now realizes he shouldn't have used the former senator's name.
