    Just a heads up people. Wilkinson have just put the Wii sports package back up on their site. Dont know if this means they will be having stock soon, but since its been missing for the last few days, it maybe worth keeping an eye on it:money:http://www.wilkinsonplus.com/invt/0258657

    Last time they were shown as in stock I grabbed one, then a phone call to say it was a mistake on the website. At least their customer service was excellent and very apologetic.

    Same here, but they did say they were hoping to get some more at the end of this month

    On of the guys in work only decided this morning he would like a Wii. He wandered up Sauchiehall Street in Glasgow, into HMV and picked a bundle up without any problems. He didn't believe me when I said there was a shortage everywhere.

    They were only selling them in a bundle with three games (of your choice) and a memory card for £279. He took Super Mario Galaxy, Mario and Sonic at the Olympics and Legend of Zelda.

    I know it isn't the console on its own but if you can pick any of the top games you might be able to sell them on at a good price.

    He said they had a large pile of them behind the counter but I'm sure they'll go quickly but if you are nearby might be worth a try.

    Can you confirm that a French Wii does say PAL on the front?
    Shouldn't it say Oui?? :)

    Just recieved an email from Argos. Ive got a Wii now but thought I'd share it. I clicked on the link and it says none in stock but the email does indicate they are getting some so it may be worth keeping an eye on them. Email below.

    Thank you for your recent enquiry on argos.co.uk

    You recently enquired about a Wii Console with Wii Sports Game., Cat No. 568/3257, on the Argos web site, which was out of stock.

    We have just received further stock of this item.

    If you would still like to order, please click on the link below as soon as possible as stock may be extremely limited on some products and we cannot guarantee availability.

    http://www.argos.co.uk/BIS?partNumber=5683257&traceablereference=TRK009

    We hope you enjoy shopping with us.

    You killed me scooter!!
  • For those of you refreshing again and again, maybe this site will help:

    www.refreshthing.com

    It has some stock checking links but they are for the US. Ignore those, put your Amazon (or wherever) link in the top box and set it to refresh every X seconds.

    Hope it's useful.
