New Wii Stock...

KWJay · 22 Oct 2007 at 19:12

Hi.
Just a quick question to anyone who might know, any reason why the Wii's on here are about £50 more than if you buy it from pretty much anywhere on the high street?

Edit: Competitors removed - can't believe i did that! Long weekends on the town do take their toll, be warned kids! lol!

Because OcUK have actual stock.

Are you giving a heads up early for the MM when you get bored and try to sell it like your PS3

Maybe, but a certain pristine high street retailer had them in Canterbury near me on Friday when i was wondering about, and it wasn't £230! No offence meant to OCUK, i use them for pretty much everything, and i already have a Wii, just wondered why the price hike as i was looking for one for a mate. Are all the Wii's going up in price due to demand?

No, they are charging more because they had to buy them in for a higher price. IIRC thats what was said in the Wii threads started by Gibbo.

Did you get Mario strikers? You will probably like that. If you could buy trauma center and Brain training I will have those off you when you sell it

Nice idea buy yourself a wii in the guise of a gift
