US Wii: Preorder Details Thread

[Mabawsa Ritchie]

Hmm, my DVDBO order now says 'order will be processed shortly'. Do you think it means 'shipping shortly'? I ordered on the 29th Sept but have had no shipping confirmation or owt.

I remember i got charged by importmadness from the DS' i ordered. But because I ordered my wii so late and they've got me a unit i'm not than happy about it

OK, cheers. So in the likely event of getting caught by customs (they'll be on the lookout), we'll be looking at about ?210 - ?220 for a Wii from Import Madness.

Mine says the same, but I think it's said that for ages. Hasn't it?

Well my copy of Zelda arrived today from DVDBO. No Wii though, so I cracked and just bought one off Ebay for ?220 including delivery to the UK. Not too bad at all, only ~?55 more than from DVDBO.

I'll be playing Zelda by the weekend, yay

im thinking of heading down that road too!

Zelda is making me itch!

Even though importmadness said "weds/thurs" for shipping i cant help but look at my order sheet every 2 seconds.

it's becoming an obsession

Anyone had any contact from import madness? I phoned them today and yesterday, and it said that the customer sevice is unavailable. Also sent an email 2 days ago but haven't had a reply yet....i hope they really are shipping 24-48 hours and are not just full of ****.

I....Need...Zelda...

Take it with a pinch of salt mate. I wouldn't give my money to a company that can't even be arsed to reply to my emails.

Bit late now but seems IM aren't particularly good when it comes to hardware releases:

I wouldn't worry too much about it, if you've ordered with a credit card, getting a refund isn't going to be an issue if they can't deliver.

There was a shortage on Xbox360s everywhere, the situation with Nintendo Wii appears far brighter.

ring them - i got through

i'm confident with my Wii pre order with IM, their customer service does suck big time though.

But I did speak direct to one of them on the phone and they seem very confident in their allocation and who is getting what.
