Bought a Wii

Options
Not sure whether this is the right place to post, but I just bought a Nintendo Wii console on eBay from very genuine looking seller for only £200 plus £20 Special Delivery postage! Considering that all shops are sold out and it's usually tricky to get the basic console second hand now for under £250, I'm very chuffed!

Comes boxed with:

Wii Play
Wii Sports
Extra Remote
Gamecube Pad (third party brand but new)
Plus all the standard stuff such as 1 x Remote and 1 x Nunchuck etc

Sounds mad but I just bought it for myself and my family to play over the Christmas holidays! I'll then trade it in at a game shop whilst the prices are still good :) On one game trade shop website I've totalled everything up to be around £260 so I should make profit too!

Just thought I'd post and let everyone know that there are still some bargains out there to be found so all is not lost!

    They say it's only been used for a couple of months, and is in good condition, so I expect it to be fine :) I've played on one before because my friend has one. Just wanted one of my own to play over Christmas lol.

    I hope you receive what you think you've paid for. I know someone who bought an xbox 360 when they came out. Or so he thought. He got a lovely glossy photo for his £400 plus p+p! Took nearly 9 months to get the money back!!

    I've read the description over and over again and can't see any flaws or scams. I think it was just a genuine bargain. Should receive by Wednesday :)
  • did the seller have lots of +ive feedback - if not... hope it is a bargain for you!

    So why is this a shop but don't drop unless the seller has other Wiis?
