    Dont worry! My next door neighbour's wife is good friends with a bloke who's brother in law drinks in the same pub as a bloke that used to work for the company that cleaned the windows of the CEO of Nintendo (UK). He reckons there will be loads available before Xmas. lol

    Until then F5, F5, F5........

    there - 'in or at that place'
    their - 'owned by them'
    they're - 'they are'

    Depends on your POV.

    If you wanted a Wii they had 600 bundles.

    If you wanted to pay £179.99 they were out of order.

    I've heard of them before and was considering ordering until this morning when the website has been unavailable for 'maintenenance' until now.

    I spoke to a few Argos branches in the Hertfordshire area this morning and all but 1 had no stock and were not expecting stock. I found 1 and reserved it for myself so please don't give up....keep hunting and i think you'll find them.

    Good luck from a relieved BiGmIkEy :D

    Everywhere seems to be makeing use of any stock to move some of the older or less popular game titles toysrus tried it with me at the weekend so I walked away even after waitning since 5:30 am.
    They are all claiming the RRP prices when most people know that you can get a large selection of games chepaer in asda or tesco. Even the prices for games in game are more that the supermarkets to the £5 you save buying games as parts of bundles isnt really a saveing when you can get the games for 2 for £40 in asda or £5 less if they don't fall in to the 2 for £40 offer.

    The problem is that stores know that people will buy the bundles as the next person in line is more likley to say yes they will buy it if you turn it down the store can't loose they just keep going to the next person someone will be happy to pay £250 or £300 just to so their kid has this years wanted present they dont care as long as they get a wii.
