    I'm sure you'll be able to sell it on ebay. There are a fair few people out there like me who bought a Wii in the US when they were unavailable here. Shame it's not a game I want, I would have bought it from you.

    Sorry if it came over as shallow - perhaps you have a point and it sounded like that, what I was trying to explain was my lack of concentration when ordering - do not expect symphathy especially from somebody like you - you have obviously never experienced any type of cancer if so you would not be making nasty little remarks - I trust you stay in the best of health rather then learning the hard way that cancer is an evil thing that has no respect for anything or anyone - perhaps if you too had had chemo, radiotheraphy, major parts of your body removed you too might experience some understanding!!! Oh, and it wasn't cheap - unlike your comments! I have now had to fight this cancer twice - believe me words cannot even beging to explain but thanks again for your understanding!

    Oh, and on the subject of the breast cancer. One hopes the treatment works, Freddie is grateful that the current Freda made a remarkable recovery last year, so there is hope.

    Next time, take care to read my post, except I do not blame my misfortune on the isntances of health.

    I just wanted to close this post and thank everybody for their advice - CD WOW have come up trumps and agreed to exchange the item for something else - couldn't ask for more so really pleased and wanted to let people know that things have worked out well in the end - will take care not to get a wii game that does not have PAL on this time - lesson learnt!

    It would have all been much easier if you sent back as being faulty, and specified you wanted a refund.

    Excellent news - well done for persevering with it :j

    Now - concentrate on getting well :A

    PS: I think you misunderstood Freddie a little bit - he is, like Douglas Adams said, "Mostly Harmless"

    Fortunately when ordering from CD-WOW it does mention the format on the website so that should help others avoid any errors.

    You sure its the complete saga as that game in ntsc version isnt available on the site but the pal version is, ask nicely if they will take it back but dont get your hopes up since it does say to check your consoles compatibility
