Most of these auctions have been bid up over £100 even though they only appeared in listings early this evening. Some bids are from foreign bidders too.
Notice some of the winners at the bottom of this page for example

This is the almost certainly the same seller selling under 3 accounts, look at the locations, all Lincolnshire
Very likely...but I can't see any evidence of any wii's. All the auctions around these were removed by ebay on Thursday too because they were won on hijacked accounts.
Any way, whatever the outcome..just a heads up not to buy here.0 -
Hi all hope everyone is well.
Just a note I got a European Pal version Wii from Amazon Germany some weeks back I know there not shipping anymore.
It was fine all with English manuals etc cant fault it.
I thought i would post this link from the BBC News web site from which a Head of Nintendo confirms that the European Wii warranty would be honored when bought from another EU based country.
Thought it would maybe stop anyone worrying if they had bought one.
Happy Holidays everyone
here's the link it mentions it near bottom of page

Well spotted Sparky. There is absolutely no way that they would have bid up to over £200 genuinely with 10 hours to go as they probably wouldn't have been seen by many people.0 -
The games are Zelda and Warioware - Smartmoves.
If you did not want them, i would sell them on ebay or trade them in game for a game of your choice ready for fun on christmas day.
Both are gold rated at the Offial Nintendo Magazine, and we have both already.
Zelda is good but involving.
Wario is the one you see onTV with the hula, chapange shaking and baloon pumping.
Both are excellent compatred to some of the dross there is (avoid super fruit fall and Rampage at all cost..)0 -
Ebay are hopeless at stopping things like this, Remember the wii's that where on offer last week for £183, well I done some investigating and discovered that the guy has 2 identies. I got in contact with a seller and they had warned ebay weeks beforehand that this guy was setting up to defraud people. Did ebay stop his account or anything no, they let him list over 100 wi's and even sell them. Tell you what sort or thing ebay let happen.0

I got mine from Amazon.DE a couple of weeks ago. It works just fine and didnt cost anymore than cost only 176 quid for the basic package. If they are still selling them i would go for it.
Fingers crossed for all you that are looking to buy.0 -
The John Lewis site have removed all their wii bundles. Last time they did this they recieved stock the following day. Could be a sign
I've also heard Game are expecting stock tomorrow lunchtime. :T
And if anybody is interested in a Wii Play, www.!!!!!! are now doing stock checks.0 -
