Wii's Spotted or Wanted. Please post all availability for the Wii here - Part 2

The problem with people advertising on here apart from it being against the Board Rules is that its completly unregulated.

Their problem is most retailers will not accept returns unless faulty or under 7 days if bought online. There may be some exceptions to this.
Thats why they try to flog them on here and save some Ebay fees, now they know its turned into a lead balloon.

With a few notable and commendable exceptions, there wasnt that many offers a few weeks ago now we seem inundated with them.

I was in Woolworths in Amersham earlier - they had 8 consoles in stock. £249 in a bundle with Wii Sports, a Mario game (not sure which and I am not sure the staff knew...!) and any £35 game.

I was told by a member of staff that the console by itself had gone up to £249(!) so I should buy the bundle!! - another way of getting rid of some games I guess....

I went through this search last year and I know how frustrating it can be - I got one though and it's fab....

HTH - Good Luck

Because the market has turned and people who overbought Wii's need to sell quickly and turn their so called investment back into cash

Mr._OCaz

About £34 for Numchuck and Remote from a very good site if you can wait if you pay express shipping you might get it before christmas! Bargain considering both would cost about £50 in the UK

...So please no more offers for sale on this Board, it makes one suspect that you are one of the carpet baggers that have been caught out!!!!

This forum makes me laugh sometimes as the hypocracy....

If you were a carpet-bagger of a building society you would be appluaded and everyone would want to know the next place they could successfully do it. If you try to do it with a Wii you are suddenly the scum of the earth.

This is a money saving forum where everyone tries to get as much as possible for as little as possible. So what is wrong with buying 5 Nintendo Wii, selling four for a decent profit to someone prepared to pay the price, and then keeping the fifth one yourself which becomes free as it's paid for by the profit on the other 4 ? To me that is almost perfect money saving.

And that is what I did about a month ago, so I'm very happy with my money saving :beer:

I sold all four on E-Bay with Buy-It-Now - the best way to sell for a profit.
