Don't open the box. There's no reasom why they should need the serial number unless they want to use it for some nefarious purpose themselves!

i wouldnt give them the serial number, they are more than likely asking every seller for it so that they can then apply for the free wii covers (or called another name), you can only apply for one if you have a wii and you need the serial number to apply.

how rude of them !!!

the same thing happened to people selling the xbox360 elite, i would reply telling them to either buy their wii skins (thats the name) or buy a wii and apply for one with their own serial number.

thanks for replies im so glad i asked now had a feeling it was dodgy.

Just say you don't want to devalue the item by opening it

they may also be wanting to chip the WII and want to know what revision of motherboard is fitted

If they want the serial number let them buy it & then they will know!

The main thing people want the serial number for is the skins, so they can sell them again on ebay.
