Whats happened to John Lewis and Amazon - they were getting stock in regularly last couple of weeks - but this last week they have been very quiet. Does anyone know when they expect more stock?

Free to whoever needs it for themselves, not to re-sell.

You would not believe this!

Where i work - i had a customer come to query some paypal payments on his account, they were all wii payments for no less than £250 - some hitting over £300. I asked him where he got them from, he said got a load off Amazon Germany before they stopped shipping and is going into mainland France every weekend and purchasing 30 Wiis and putting them in his car and driving back.
And yes i did tell him that he was wrong making money off people desperate for a wii but he didnt seem at all bothered.

Actually, more difficult at the moment.

There are none to be had from any reputable online reseller likely to deliver before xmas at the moment, and haven't been for 3 days bar the regionally-selective argos offerings (which are also now out I believe).

I have no inside knowledge, but my guess is some will turn up before weekend.

I have a stock checker running 24/7 against the "top dozen" or so retailers.
I'll post up as soon as I see any.

If Amazon hadnt been so long delivering my original Wii Play order there would have been another for sale through them. Instead im now sat with a second Wii Play still wrapped that i paid £42 for (£2 p+p to make sure this one was trackable instead of super saver delivery) and if i want to return it will have to pay about £4 p+p. Meaning £6 out of pocket because the original order came well after the expected delivery date, and i assumed it was lost so ordered another. Not very happy.

Selling 30 x @ atleast £250 = £7,500

Buying 30 x @ £179.99 = £5,399

Profit £2,101 every weekend, of course their not bothered lol.

I doubt you are near me, but someone might pay you the £42 plus shipping for it. It's a shame Amazon were charging £40.

Yes i know some were getting them for about £35 elsewhere when they had them i think it was but thats what it cost me from Amazon.

My second one, i ordered from them Friday so anyone after one should keep trying as they seem to release a few here n there. I think i grabbed my one about 12.20am and at the time there was 2 left.
