    I've sold 2 wiis on ebay (sourced from France, I live near Dover) & have another sitting there at 99p with only 1 watcher...now that's frightening.

    Please can I ask what your eBay ID is then please, so I may be able to bid on it? Hubby's going mad for one!

    This might be self-defeating because I am also selling some on ebay but you can do FAR better than buying one on ebay if you have a bit of luck, determination, and patience - just look back over this thread and you may well save yourself £80/£100 over the ebay price by ordering online through any of the sources mentioned.

    Cheers!

    You'll be fine - if you're not, I'll eat my shoes :)
  • has anyone tried german ebay?
    i looked the other day and there was about 500 on the site cheap as well.
    or other european sites.
    i have a friend going out to sweden next week by the looks of it wii's are about £15 more expensive out there but we shall see.
  • Not sure i believe this World shortage hype , i've seen varying reports on the news . Germany is swimming in them according to the 6 o'clock news . My mate in the army has brought some home everytime he's been over .

    HMV in Boston had a delivery and didn't shift them for a day or two and the gamestation here even has second hand ones in . I think the shortage must be regionalised as i'm not even sure they have waiting lists here anymore .

    By the look of it you're not really living up to your screenname - you might want to consider changing it :)
  • People are switching onto the idea, what happends in 3 weeks when the overseas stock run dry, and nolonger imported to the uk, as nintendo have told them not to supply the UK, as they want to drive the demand up.

    I think im gonna sit tight on this Wii, if prices go the way i want them too, then maybe ill consider selling, if not then we can keep it and get it out to play with..

    Noticed Uk spec power adaptors for £7.90 on the internet, including power pack..

    All thats different with the euro ones is plug on the end. volatage etc is the same...

    Cheaper to buy a plug adaptor for £3 (or less)

    No, because your DS is telling you not to! It was a compliment :)
