US Wii: Preorder Details Thread

[Lazlow]

Well the fact mine is here must mean the next lot must be on the way soon right?

Hopefully, would just be nice to get some contact from sidney or VG+ just so we know what the situation is. It's over a week since the last update, wouldnt hurt to give us some news.

[chopemon]

Speaking of which, any updates on the VG+ situation?

stroller mailed them on friday and they are dispatching some today

he updated his list and i was number 11 on the queue and he seems to think i may be one of the people to get it shipped today

though i'm worried it won't be shipped if it hasn't got zelda to go with it. if it doesn't ship i'm gonna mail em and see what the state of play is

he's a good lad with his list

What sort of size are the shipments they are receiving? Im currently 58 and really hope I can get one before Chrimbo.

im in the same boat - I still dont have my Wii and the seller says its been shipped, I asked him for a tracking number - he claims there isnt one, but he has a receipt to claim that it has been shipped (could that be the tracking number and he hasnt realised?)

and ParcelForce claim theres no deliveries scheduled to my address - now im worried....

How did he say it was being sent? If it was by 3-5 EMS there should be a tracking number, if it's bog standard air mail than there will be a proof of postage, but no way of tracking it. That will also probably take quite a bit longer. Although from the looks of it, I may be waiting just as long as you

[Shozuki]

he said USPS Global Express - and on the USPS webiste - there should be a tracking number - i've contacted the seller and am awaiting his response!

[TheGreatDave]

Yeah, there should be a number then. My seller sent me a scan of the form he had to fill in, there's a big barcode at the top which is your tracking number

from what i can tell they get between 10 and 15 but i'm not sure how regularly

I got my ebay seller to ship via Global Express as opposed to standard (paying a little extra) and got an email last night from paypal with the tracking number, and the item hasn't even been dispatched yet.

[Shozuki]

well, I guess I shouldnt panic just yet.... its early morning in the US, so I just wait for his reply....

EDIT: out of curiousity who is the seller you guys brought from?

Ah well heres hoping they crack out a shipment of 80 odd

[wicky]

I may possibly end up with two being shipped this week, If i do i will put one on the sale forum. However, if anyone can collect from newcastle they can have first dibs on it. If only one gets shipped before the other it's likely i may cancel the one that hasn't shipped yet. But i reckon they will both be shipped this week.

We need a number to complain to customs now

0845 010 9000

Tried it, no help really, she took my postcode but said they never hold on to things for more than 48 hours and if I haven't got a letter than they don't have the package. Then she gave me Parcelforce's wonderful number again

[Mayhem]

Mine's being sent USPS Global Express as well. Was mailed Saturday, USPS site shows it having left LA yesterday so hopefully it should arrive here either today or tomorrow, and then see if Customs want to have a gander at it...

[Espio]

Just phoned Parcel Force, who tell me that my Wii is *definetly* not in customs, and advise me to contact the seller - which I did, and whom seems to know even less than I do.
