Cheeky ebayers- Wii
My sons Birthday is on Tuesday and he wanted a Nintendo Wii. i could not find one anywhere so i ordered one from Dabs. No idea when it will come in
but at least it's on order.
My wife looked on ebay and found a few people who have ordered from Argos' everywhere and are selling the reservations for arround £5. No
bloomin wonder we can't get hold of one!! When you win they send the reservation number via email and you just go pick it up.
Bloomin cheeky if you ask me........wish i had thought of it

How does that work then?? You can only reserve for a couple of days cant you?? I suppose they just keep reserving it.

I've had a similar problem. I ca'nt believe that they hav'nt manufactured enough to cope with the demand. I've had to get my
son a DS Lite for the time being.
If you think that the ebayers selling the "reservation tickets" are cheaky, just look at the mark up the ones selling the actual consoles
are demanding!

What's the RRP on them?
Amazon have some advertised at £259.97 but the RRP with a line through it is £179.99.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

They should be £179.99 but some companies are selling for much higher due to the lack of supply.
We did actually bid on the resevation number and won. We went to Argos and paid via the self service till and picked up the Wii, no probs. My son is a
vary happy camper!!
