    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    I got mine by ordering about 8 am with Argos. The message going on about your order not being confirmed until you got an email came up. The message also suggested I waited a few hours during "busy periods". So I waited 2 mins and rang the customer service dudes and the nice lady said the order hadn't gone through and would I like to order on the phone?...... Should be delivered tomorrow. Now comes the tricky bit, finding another remote!

    Nintendo have said they will honour the warranty on a Wii bought in the EU as there are the supply restictions in the UK. IN some ways it's better non UK ones tend to have a 2 year warranty.

    Think What I am going to do is to give the customer service a call and find outt... what is happening... Been looking for a wii for ages.. Hopefully I will get them in time for xmas... ;-)

    I called Argos customer services and they have said one is being delivered to me on Monday but my other order was cancelled......what a nightmare. I was ordering one on behalf of my boyfriends neices and one on behalf of my own nephews......ive already told my boyfriends brother that I have ordered it so have to honour that and now my poor nephews might not get one.....the search continues for mone more. I thought it was all sorted this morning :-(

    Snipped from a BBC article on shortages.
    You are quite correct and within your rights to purchase any item within the European Economic Area for shipment to any other country in the EEA. Your warranty is still valid anywhere in the EEA if the product was bought from any EEA member country.
  • I ordered from argos this morning and got no confirmation e mail, so after an hour of refreshing my e mail inbox i rang them and they had no record of my order.:( i was gutted but the nice cs lady said they were still in stock (she was as shocked as me) and i could order one there and then. :rotfl: coming on monday but i wont b happy til it is actually in the door.
    A HUGE thanks to all posters on this thread as i couldnt have done it without you. :T

    My Woolies order has finally changed to ready to despatch instead of pre order!
  • Good News... called the argos customer service again ( my 3rd call ), all 3 calls confirmed that they have my order and have been paid for and will be delivered on the 8th of december.
  • Has anyone actually received an email from argos about their order ?
