  • I went to Asda in Leicester earlier. Asked at the desk if they has any. "Not sure, the lorry has just arrived so we won't know for an hour or so".

    I wandered back out and round to the loading bay. Asked the driver who was sat on a wall reading The Sun. He confirmed there were none on today but he has seen 'loads of pallets of em' at the distribution centre.

    Only hearsay, but i see no reason why he would make it up.
  • I just ordered mine from game station too though im trying to call them to confirm my order as I did not receive the confirmation email ..

    To be honest yes it is kind of expensive but if you look at the package its not expensive..

    I mean if you want a console you will buy games now or later and if you do the math the games turn on cheaper ..

    I am very happy with the deal though i hope it works and we get our order

    fingers crossed :rolleyes:
  • I was just wondering if the order status is processing does that mean its working lol ?
  • according to the customer services guy at gamestation yes it does, he said if the order says processing then its highly likely to be successful. He wouldnt commit himself 100% but i suppose he was covering his back. He rested my mind thats for sure.

    Kidding.

    Well least there is more stock out there on it's way.

    Those not wanting to pay more than £180, just keep an eye out, i've managed to get 5 wii's for rrp from help in this thread and by keep refreshing the websites.

  • Hi all,

    I don't post much (if at all) but I'm a constant lurker but thought now was a good time to ask for a bit of advice! Been looking for a couple of Wii's for relatives for xmas (I know...who hasn't!?). Anyway I saw an advert on Gumtree for a Wii for £150 - followed it up with a few emails, and it was a company saying they would sell me as many as I wanted @£150 each. I asked how they could sell so cheap and they said it was "Factory Price", anyway they then gave me the following details:

    BEMAX (UK) LIMITED
    Registered No. 02475654
    78 WESTBURY LANE, NEWPORT PAGNELL, BUCKINGHAMSHIRE, MK16
    8PN
    [EMAIL="bemaxukshopping@hotmail.com"]bemaxukshopping@hotmail.com[/EMAIL]
    Tel:07045700042,07934901491

    I assume this was to ease my concerns. It half did, but seeing a hotmail address isn't a good sign is it? Oh and they also only accept Moneygram as payment...I should really just walk away from this right?

    Thanks

  • Which are the more likely sites for a console only, i'm trying Amazon, Wilko, JL. Are there any others you would like to recommend? Or is that giving away your secrets?
  • yes i would be very cautious

    as they say if it sounds too good to be true then it probably is!!

    ive already been scammed once the other week by a bogus company selling wii's for £125

    i could kick my self i really could

    so yes check the company out thoroughly
    and i noticed the tel. no. given is a mobile number another reason to be wary.

    good luck !

    dirty vegas I am doing the same as you!

    who are you looking for the wii for - children?

    We have decided to keep our eyes peeled as much as possible, but won't pay over the odds, so as its not for children - just my big child (husband to be) he may ahve to wait until spring!
