i can get uk machines imported by my coleague who sells them in the uk, i wont buy one tho as i have to pay the high price too!

i am going to uk at easter, so i will just get one then as i brough my xbox and xbox 360 with me. good job too as NO WHERE stocks or sells xbox 360 stuff, its all ps2 and some ps3 only!

the wii looks great tho, i wish i had enough time to play it, my brother bought one and they are all at my house in the uk playing it each weekend now, when i should be there beating them all n gears of war! nevermind!

this is bit of a ramble, so sorry, but im new, please contact me if your interested in getting a machine, i dont want to make any money, i will put you in touch direct with my friend. any machine, not just the wii. heard the next machine is gonna be the pii! or maybe the db!

hi dave

wanted to get one for my hubby for christmas - and being the organised gal that i am decided this...um...on sunday...

Most online shops seem to be sold out at the moment.

Gonna wait now till his birthday in feb - as i dont want to spend 2-3 times the actually selling price.

thanx though!

i just saw nintendo wii in virgin megastore for 350 uk pounds! wow even the departmentstores are ripping u off! arent they 120 pounds in the uk or certainly less than 200

They are £179 in the UK if you can find one.

I am going back next week for a couple of weeks, so i am going to try and find one, but i am not too confident. They seem to be out of stock everywhere.

I could have one now as i got one at launch, but i was greedy and sold it for £100 profit on ebay.

I just managed to buy one online, with one game (Zelda) and component cable from Gameplay in UK.

Should be at my home in UK buy the time i get back next week.

Total damage £234 (1680 AED)

ooh that sounds good - are they selling the PAL versions? and do you think they would ship out here?

yeh, the UK versions are all PAL. I think they would ship out here (if you try Amazon, etc) but the shipping costs wouldnt be worth it. Im sure you can find on in Dubai (look in Meena Bazar or the computer street...)

They only ship to UK, and they are already out of stock again

I used this website to find my Wii: http://www.wiipreorder.co.uk/

I have one of those aramax shop and ship accounts so i think if i get it in the UK i can have it sent that way - dunno the shipping cost though.

All the major stores here are selling them for AED2500! I doubt anywhere here will be selling them for any cheaper in the near future.

Would rather not have one for a while than get shafted!
