Their other listing seems to be a Wii ?.

Would you trust them if you knew about the auction you posted. :rolleyes:

That's an understatement, but ebay is saturated with imports.

I have two left and will save them for next week when hopefully prices recover a bit

Amazon banned us from Germany can we not ban the Germans from our ebay?:p

I've spent the last 5 minutes trying to contact the 'successful' bidder (who is in the Netherlands) to warn them that they've just paid £92 for an empty box. But ebay is blocking my messages (I've had this problem before when trying to warn victims of scams). Ebay sometimes blocks messages to people you have not transactions with.

Oh well

Thinks.....wonder if I'd get a good price for the brick..............

Depends where they are from.

European imports will work fine in the UK just by changing the electrical plug.

Japanese consoles only play Japanese games.

U.S. consoles don't work with UK TV's ? (not sure about that one, but it's something that doesn't work over here.)

Thanks for your post......

Well, as I said.....I ordered sucessfully one tonight and got a nasty shock when the order said will be delivered after the 25th with a dispatch of the 2nd!!!!!!

It now says


Dispatch estimate:2 Dec 2007
Delivery estimate:4 Dec 2007 - 27 Dec 2007


so who knows!!!!!

I've ordered loads of stuff from Amazon over the years. I've got nothing but praise for them (it?). They often quote slightly longer dispatch/delivery times but then manage to get things to you quite quickly. I've no experience of them messing me about. They use their own delivery system and they seem to take on extra delivery vans & staff at Christmas. I've even known them deliver on a Sunday close to Christmas.

So have faith - if they say it will dispatched 2nd Dec I reckon you will soon be getting an e-mail like mine. You'll have your Wii by the end of the week.

To be fair to the seller, they did make it clear it was a box..not like some auctions I've seen..and maybe a box would be useful if you were wanting to sell on a 2nd hand one..but it's obvious from the bidding & questons that some people thought they were bidding on the wii.

I wonder what happened to the buyers who bought links for over £200 too.

Alias Omega..can you explain to me how this 2 year euro warranty works?(if you have the time in between feeding & nappy changing!!)
If I register it with NIntendo UK. won't I just get a standard 1 year UK warranty?
