Nintendo Wii - in time for xmas (I think!)

Hi all
Right....I think this offer will get you a Nintendo Wii delivered before Xmas.
The deal is that you buy a mobile contract from Orange here - the deal gives a free nintendo Wii with the contract. Now if you just purchase the contract the Wii is delivery in approx 28 days. BUT there is an option at the bottom of the page to guarantee delivery prior to christmas. They require a £180 refundable deposit, but as it's paid by credit card I can't see a problem with being sure to get it back...and also that's less that the Wii costs anyway.
So as long as you want a phone and don't mind paying the deposit it looks as though you could get a Wii for christmas after all....and if they don't deliver the Wii as agreed, just terminate the contract (I think)
If I wrong...someone please tell me quick...cos I ordered one for my son! - and if I can't get the Wii then I'll cancel

im very iffy about these kinds of deals because im sure i heard the consoles given were something called grayscale stock (this ws all from when the psp was released) basically imported stock i think, a lot of them went wrong and sony wouldnt touch them because they were grayscale and the mobile places wouldnt touch them because it was a free gift
edit: cant find where i found this out, maybe someone told me, nevermindYes Your Dukeiness0 -
oooo....er now I'm not sure cos there is a notice on the site

BUT......there is also the option for the £180 guaranteed pre christmas delivery and it let's you select that so I guess I'll leave the order and see what comes on Tuesday0 -

Well....I think I'll risk it and leave the order open until Tuesday. I have my rights to cancel with 7 days and I won't activiate or open any phone package that might arrive. So not a huge risk IMHO and definitely worth a gamble.0 -

Of course you get a phone on contract but you get a wii before xmas,
You still pay your £180 but its refundable.
I hope that helps somebody out
Keep smiling,
