Well Dixons is now saying sold out - so if it didn't say that when you ordered I should think you'll be ok.

What I want to know is how come new ones seem to be selling slightly cheaper on ebay than in the shops? I'd have thought as they're hard to get hold of people would be paying silly money.

Hi Trinity, I copied you last night and ordered DH one from Virgin. Will let you know when we receive ours - I will be so mad if not in stock as I would not have ordered and paid for it if this is the case!! Good Luck.

I DON'T BELEIVE IT... Had an email from Virgin to say error on their website and have no Nintendo Wii's don't know when getting them. DH Not happy.... Back to square one. Only now waiting for refund to credit card for the one we paid for. Rahhh

Try Debenhams - a bit more expensive but they were in stock earlier today.

hoxtonchick · 15/10/2007 19:44

dp bought one on ebay a few months ago & it's been fine.

angelcake99 · 15/10/2007 22:51

i got my wii by using www.instockuk.com which tell you when they are in stock, its pretty good,they emailed me as soon as one was in stock.

chatee · 16/10/2007 10:49

Wii(sorry) got one !!!
dh talked to someone in game...apparently they do not get deliveries on a sun/mon so tuesday is a good day to be there first thing- and wait for their courier service to arrive.....
dh arrived outside game at 8.40am and was second in the queue, shop opened at 9am and by 9.20 all of them had gone(10 on delivery)
do not try ringing up as the staff did not answer the phone that rang like a song from 9am onwards

dh currently setting it up to ensure it's fine before it gets sent to FC xx

hope everyone else is lucky too xx

I nabbed the last one from our local Gamestation, there was a loady with her son in the que behind us making a fuss that i had git it when i didn't even have any kids with me, she was banging on about what was the world coming to when and adult got priority over a child!

I told her it was going to be used as a key factor in my ds's crucial physio, - she soon went quiet.

I heard toys r'us are getting a load in for the xmas rush.

RubberDuck · 16/10/2007 14:06

I used Wii Preorder to find where stock was - they were pretty prompt at emailing when new stock arrived as 20 minutes before I'd been at the Gamestation site and they'd had no stock.

RubberDuck · 17/10/2007 12:21

My Wii arrived this morning!

Fingers crossed it works... will try it out tonight before wrapping it up for The Big C...
