They are utter cunts. I'm never setting foot in there again, unless it is to beat the managers lips off and lay a Boston Steamer on his face.
My girlfriend has queued up in the rain this morning waiting for 11 0am for their delivery of Nintendo Wii's - and we both went in there on sunday to make sure they were coming in and would be usual price.
There were about 40 people queuing and they got about 40 Wii's in their delivery, but they decided to sell them for £250. Absolute con, it's an utter piss take that my girlfriend had to wait in rain for a consol to be delivered that she didnt even have enough money to buy.
Utter cocks.

If you look on their site they have only been selling them with games and accessories for months to get sales.
Its totally wrong and disgusting.
I managed to get mine using this: http://www.wii-consoles.co.uk/wii_console_realtime.asp

Nope. Default language on everything is English.
You just need a continental plug convertor from poundland.

Just read that link, Richie is correct.
You can also return faulty goods to UK centres.

And.... make sure that when she orders it shows as Amazon.de.... that way it ensures she is getting it from amazon and not a marketplace seller.

And did you not think to ask them on the sunday how much they would be so your gf could have enough money for one?
