    Thanks, i will keep an eye out on their website!

    Get registered as this save vital time. I managed to grab one last Friday and was delivered Tuesday, but they don't come up very often and theres usually a mad dash to the website.

    I think I might have 2 being delivered tomorrow if so I will sell one to someone for the price i paid plus postage.
    So someone who has been trying for ages and not managed to get one let me know.

    I'm giving you the way it is, from a ebay Wii seller. Take it or leave it I don't really care.

    And im correcting you - from a Platinum ebay Powerseller with multiple 10,000+ feedback accounts and a business running for over 5 years

    Do a search on completed items and you will see the best time to buy a Wii.

    I dont need to search. I have sold well over 100 and the best time to end an auction for the highest price is Sunday evening.

    If a seller tells you it's £25 for royal mail special delivery then they can't use a £5 courier.
    Erm, oh yes they can. I do it every day. Zero complaints. They dont know what the courier costs me (About £4.26+VAT)

    Sellers want rid of stock before the 25th. Prices are going down (again just check completed items), stock is now more plentiful than a month ago, hence lower prices.
    Demand is still far in excess of supply. I was selling Wiis are £245 + £25P&P a few weeks ago as fast as I could get them delivered. Now they go for £260 + £25 P&P.

    And no one cares about clearing stock by the 25th unless they are a kid that needs their pocket money back in time for Xmas.

    You might get one for £210 if you bid all day, but its well under the going rate.

    If you look at ended listings, the average price is about £240 + £25 P&P. So about £265.

    Cheap way to get an extra remote - a selection of mini games complete with an extra remote. Don't waste your money buying from sharks who are charging £55 upwards for this at the mo, I got one on Amazon.De for approx £35 incl postage.:rotfl:
