    :D Just found one! :D

    The one and only Wii was sitting on the shelf in my local Tesco. Grabbed it immediately!

    Did you buy the bundle, I was worried about buying from a website I had never heard of and with no contact phone numbers !

    I did buy the bundle (£249) and had the same reservations, but he came up trumps for me & I believe is still taking orders.
  • GRRRR! :mad: I have been trying to get on since like the 10th of December!:mad:

    It's so annoying and i keep missing the internet batches and my local stores dont seem to ever have them :mad:

    I love The Wii as i have played it round my friends house! :money:

    Can't believe it, tried my local argos at 1 o'clock today, 1st go, but as I read on another thread I did the ring and reserve, typed in my local store no. which is miles from any of the big cities and reserved one. Didn't know if it would be there but just collected it at 5pm. Was told that a few come in most deliveries, just 4 or 5 and if you ring just before the delivery comes you do get one as they know what has been despatched. I now have a very happy son who can't wait for his 13th birthday.
    Too many children, too little time!!!

    just wondering what number did you ring? i tried customer services today and they won't reserve one for me, so by the time i got there, they all sold out.
  • yes i tried ringing the argos line. must of got the wrong one!

    Rang the ring and reserve, 0870 6001010, then it asks you for your store number which you get from the website, the system then reserves it for you.

    that's strange, that's the number i keep ringing everyday and everyday, it keeps saying, this product is not available for reserve but is available for you to purchase instore!

    typed in item number 5683257, maybe because its a small town store and there is no passing trade they can't do that, where we live you drive 30 minutes to the local argos so if you had to try on the off-chance of getting one would be a nightmare, plus the staff would get lynched.

    Have you tried typing in other store numbers, maybe some from smaller places.
