    https://www.i-p-w.co.uk have them in stock, bought mine without a game less than £200 :)

    Are we to assume that your two posts from yesterday were deleted because you're a shill for these i-p-w people? ;)

    (Also, i-p-w aren't offering any packages for less than £236, and the website looks decidedly dodgy.)

    I have a reservation code for a Wii console at Leeds White Rose Argos that I managed to book for my mate, who unbeknownst to me was booking his own at virtually the same time! I know he could get an extra one and flog it for a profit, but he's a bit like me when it comes to stuff like this (principled and poor, lol!). First person to PM me who GENUINELY wants it and lives in the Leeds area gets the code. I feel embarrassed that I probably have to confirm the code will be given away, not sold.

    PS Forgot to say, it expires at close of business tomorrow (Wednesday)


    EDIT: Code now gone.

    Go away, why don't you? :mad: Anyone clever enough to do a whois on this site?
  • Ok set my self a wii challenge this morning. Decided it was time to get the Wiias birthday present to myself but wanted it same day so ended up ringing around the GAME/GAMESTATION stores in Cambridge no stock as pretty mush expected. Thought its a nice afternoon so will spend an hour walking around all the shops that might stock them. Virgin only get deliveries on Wednesday and Friday and dont know in advance if geting any. HMV are expecting a delivery of 4 tonight and he suggested I ring them this afternoon to check if the delivery had arrived as only then would he be able to reserve one for me for collection tomorrow. Last place I tried was WH Smiths and again none on the shelves but asked the stock control lady who was as the title would suggest was doing a stock check of some kind. Said 'I've only got one left' YIPPEEEE.. So A Wii Sports pack is mine within 4 hours of deciding I wanted one. Also at the checkout just happened to ask if they had any Wii Controllers as I wanted an extra. Out comes the last Wii Play pack with extra games.

    Just need to persuade the wife that a Wii is good for my 3 year old's hand eye co-ordination.

    Argos Cleveleys (Near Blackpool) appear to have stock available for reservation according to the website. I was only looking out of curiosity - my wife will kill me if I buy one whilst we're skint! :-(

    I think they are totally overated. I have one sitting on my lounge floor and i has hardly been used, if I could get rid of it I would.

    Again I have had to delete some posts that were advertising private sales of the wii console. This is not allowed on this forum.
