  • Anyone looking to purchase Wii controller, I would recommend dealextreme order controller and nunchunk for $66 (£33) and received yesterday 11 days after order.

    Also in Game on Monday and overheard salesman telling a customer they receive deliveries Monday and Friday am and that is the best time to check for stock of Wii's.
  • they had 30 this morning in asda trafford park , manchester.
    sorry i couldnt post earlier but it might be worth a phone call if your really that desperate.
    i was tempted to buy and sell on ebay but i resisted im also tempted to sell my own as i really think they are overrated . the games are so expensive and are really for children. but if you can afford to spend that on a 10 year old then good luck!
    glad to hear you resisted - it's people doing that who are making it harder to get hold of them. can't believe people can seriously be trying to sell them for up to £400 on Amazon. they should be ashamed - although i'm sure they're not :mad:

    How do people suddenly have "unwanted wii's"? No wonder it has been difficult getting them! :(

    Well that's it the gravy train has come off the rails.
  • Try Blockbusters shops - my local one in Leyland, Lancashire had 10 this evening (and Wii Play in stock - I bought 2). I also know that a store in Manchester had 6 consoles in stock that had been delivered the day before.

    They don't sell them online but it is certainly worth ringing your local store as they are willing to reserve them for you.

    Best of luck!
  • How much was the wii play in blockbuster? will have a trip to our local tomorrow

    It was £34.99 and I bought 2 of them. This seems to be a good price considering a wiimote by itself can be £30 (if you can find them) - means the game is effectively a fiver.

    amazon must have had a big delivery, gone back up to 88

    And it won't be the last delivery before Christmas neither:D

    Because they have relised that it costs £180, the listing fees, selling fees and paypal fees are about £16, so the console now owes them £196... and ebay prices are dipping below this, so it's costing them to sell them.

    11 shopping days left now, and more Wii deliveries are due:T

    I think that by the middle of Next week prices on Ebay will go up massively. I think this weekend will be the last weekend that stores have deliveries and by next week, Ebay will be the main place to get one.
