Default Nintendo Wii - Where can I buy one?

I want to get a Wii.

With most things I buy, I type product into ebay or google and go from there but I watched Watch Dog in Jan about fake companies selling Wiis and people never getting them.

So any suggestions where I can buy one from. I want Wii Sport & Wii Olympics games too.

We got ours from Argos - it was when they were in short supply and they had a delivery to the Falmouth branch which we reserved on the internet and then collected.

Wii's aren't in short supply anymore really. Most high street retailers have them now.

However, if you want to buy Wii Fit then your gonna find that hard as its sold out on pre-order alone!

Watch this video after the one above. It's hilarious.

Thanks all - I think I might actually go to a high-street store (shock horror!) Tell them exactly what I want & see what sort of deal they can do.

Guess what I'll be doing at the weekend....

OK:

http://www.play.com/Games/Wii/4-/103...s/Product.html - play.com - use 'experience08' as a voucher to get 5% off...

Or if you prefer a highstreet store - Johnlewis will give you £15 off using code PPY736AFM852 if you are a new customer

You'll also get cashback for both the above if you shop via quidco - I think it's another 4% off for play.com, so you're gonna get that price right down...

I remember when Wii's were in short supply, the distrubitor in the UK went bust. Made my day as soon after I managed to get hold of over 100 graded ones. They were no where to be found and I had over 100

Retail at £180 brand new and I sold mine, that were second hand, for well over that price. I would love to tell you how much I got them in at, but I won't!

One of the best ever deals I done.

Anyway, I do get them in now and again but haven't got any in at the moment. What I will have coming in tomorrow is lots of Wii Remotes with games and also lots of iPod Touches (both 8GB and 16GB) if anyone is interested.
