Where the hell can I get a Wii?

[Andez]

Having serious problems trying to get a wii and not paying the earth for it through ebay or amazon. Anyone know of any cheeky places which might have stock?

[Zooropa]

Fuck, they STILL out of stock everywhere?

What's Argos saying?

Try the mad ones up in Inverness and that.

[Andez]

Still yeah, I've got Argos to text me when there is stock back in. Pure joke getting one though, and its only gonna get worse in the lead up to Christmas...

[JZY]

The best bet is going into places like Gamestation & G-force every morning and asking. The guy in g-force gets in like 1 every couple of days but its usually sold by 12pm. persistance is the key.

[Girshkin]

I got mine from Gamestation on Sauchiehall Street - just head into town reasonably early and try a few places. I could have got one in Game but chose not to cos they were only offering it with an insurance/warranty deal (I forget which) but the Game in Debenhams might be a good place to try - they always seem to have stuff in stock cos very few people know they're there.

After playing the one in work all week, I so want one.

[hotblonde]

Woolworths on Byres Road had a few in yesterday.

[poprock]

Can’t believe they’re still in short supply. Sort yourselves out Nintendo.

[Semprini]

They were in decent supply and could be got fairly easily. I had no money then.

I now have money, but Christmas is approaching, so supplies are scarce again.

[Exit_W0unds]

I saw about four second hand wiis in gamestation a week or so ago, so I guess they do turn up.

[poprock]

Aye, but because supplies of new ones are still a bit scarce, second-hand units go for almost full price.

[McLeary]

Still cannot belive I got one 3 days before Christmas last year, completely out of the blue. You just need a Morrison's hook-up like I had.

[Wee Dave]

I got mine from my work, just ordered it and got it 2 days later, but there again i do work for them and got a deal

Best place to try is places like gamestation and game, they are usually getting some in every 2-3 days.

But dont try anywhere like comet, currys, pc world etc they usually have a backlog of waiting customers and you could be waiting a good 3-4 weeks

[Sublimation]

Phone up every GAME store that you can reach at 9 am in the morning until they get them in.

If you phone up, you can probably get them held by for that day...if they are comming in.

[Fremlin]

We bought one last week and Virgin, PC World, Curry's, Comet and Sainsbury's in East Kilbride all had them.
