Do you know anyone going to the states or someone in the UK. My friend got some impossible toy last year by ringing a shop in the UK and giving her cc details on the phone. Her friend picked up the item for her and posted it to her.

Nope :(

Had a look on ebay but prices through the roof! (approx 500 euro)

Hi,

Ordered off scoregame last Tuesday(20/11) and after a couple of emails and phonecalls to Paris over the last week, thankfully today my online order status moved to the final stage, ie Dispatched on 29/11/07... so hopefully it will be here pretty soon. Dont think the site is in any way a scam, "Game" are a worldwide company and they seem v prof imo...
 
Re: Nintendo Wii - Where to Buy

Yes, my order is now showing as dispatched, and we recieved an email confirmation today too, saying expected delivery is 10 - 12 days.

Have to agree, they are very professional, answering emails and providing info on the phone - and their english is way better than my french!!:)

Re: Nintendo Wii - Where to Buy

Thanks for that. I just went back to my email there to get their phone number and an email popped in saying that everything is fine now and that it will be leaving at 5pm this evening. I'll try 1111 for the postcode in future.

Re: Nintendo Wii - Where to Buy

That time of year again, Christmas shopping. I have read the threads relating to buying hardware or pre-ordering from last year. Do not feel too hopeful as a result. Where will I start to look, anyone any recent experience please?

Re: Nintendo Wii - Where to Buy

They are available to buy from Oxendales.ie. its a catalogue company a bit like Littlewoods. They have them in stock, cost approx €450.00 including three games.

Apparently not any more...
They're now stating is unlikely they'll be able to fulfill pre Christmas orders!
Not unlike many other local retailers...
[broken link removed] is still showing availability, and word is that other French retailers have stock too. German retailers however are apparently blocking online sales of Wii colsoles to the UK!!
 
Re: Nintendo Wii - Where to Buy

Thanks for the recomendation for oxendales, but quite honestly with their requirement for all the information below ,I wouldnt bother!If I wanted to buy something I would be paying in full by laser or credit card and dont see why I have to give information ,such as how many children under 17 i have!,type of residence etc, thats just mad!And that even if you want a cataloge sent! no way.
HERES WHAT THEY WANT TO KNOW..

I came across this on another site. Never used them.

EDIT Maybe not. Nothing coming up on google for them. If they were a big estalished outfit you would expect to find lots about them
