Techsplosion.co.uk (http://www.techsplosion.co.uk) are advertising that they know how many Wii's they are receiving.

And because they are relatively unknown of, you can get a Wii for launch.

Figured people would want to know this...

BlueCorrosion can you give us some more info in the company? Looks like you work for them?

Please proceed with care with this kind of merchant, they scare me! There was a few big scandles in the US with fake pre order sites. If you are willing to pay more I would just go for ebay shortly after launch.

But i have left the post up for people to give their own feedback and make their own decision. Any thoughts?

Hi new member! well anyway i checked techsplosion out to see if they were worth trying. I recieved the rather annoying e-mail from play.com and i was extremely mad.

Anyway it is true that techsplosion say that they can get you a wii for launch. The general presentation seems very legit, however this doesn't mean alot. They have an ebay account and as you probably know ebay use paypal so they are obviously a safe company in that way. I had a look for what certificates they has, they seem to have a SSL (secure sockets layer) from comodo (www.comodogroup.com/) which is like the 2nd best kind of certificate out there.

On the information i found about comodo SSL it seems that the information that a buyer would need to know is that any company with this kind of certificate means they are trusting and legit in their products, also what they do with your credit card details is a safe unhackable way and that they don't misuse or pass them on to others. Sorry i can't find the link i got this info off. seen as they only give out these certificates to elit companies it all seems very safe and i myself have bought one off them. i know that the guy who first made this post seems a bit like he works for the company and probly does to be honest. But i don't myself work for techsplosion. judge as you will but i'm just giving the info i got when i made the judgement. Also their ebay account have tonnes of positive replys from customers and very very few negitive ones. one last thing is that somehow i forgot now but you can view a websites certificates on their webpage, i stumbled across it yesterday and found that techsplosions that in date and from comodo so they speak the truth on their privacy page.

plz get back to me on this one i'd like to hear thoughts

sorry if there is spelling errors.

19-11-2006, 12:38 PM
lol hopefully it won't come to that! I do have bluecorrosions ip though!!! :wink:

For the record, WiiFind doesn't condone an acts of revenge against any reatiler or reseller of Wii's if you dont get your stock! :D

19-11-2006, 12:44 PM
lol ah well i'll just use that IP for education purposes, like teaching techplosion a lesson if it comes to that, which hopefully it won't

I was thinking about ordering from there if I can't get one from Amazon on Tuesday. Now I've ordered both from Argos and Game I'm expecting to get an email telling me about shortages of Wii unless I get one from of them then I'll really be ****ed!
Would Techexplosion charge your account straight away or till it's been shipped?

budtom
19-11-2006, 07:57 PM
They do the same as all the others m8 only until it's been shipped. However i would cancel the ones you don't want at least 3 days before because i think some companies, play and techsplosion at least take your payment say on the 6th of december. Just so they can have everything 100% ready.

Strange question.... I suppose the only thing we can show you is
our ebay feedback rating:

http://feedback.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&userid=techsplosion&ssPageName=STRK:ME:UFS

and our Amazon feedback rating.

hmm what about any kind of certificates? Like your privacy page says
about an SSL or something? what do they mean?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SSL means secured socket layer

Basically that means that your personal details are entered securely on our server.

You will be able to tell that our site is secure by the fact that the URL changes from http:// to https:// (s = secure) and also a padlock appears in the lower right hand corner of your browser.

If you're going to order, order quickly, we've sold more than 120 this morning and have less than 60 available for launch date now.

Regards

Amar K



So there you go i hope that clears things up for you a bit guys get ordering if u want one.

I could kiss you, the only thing now is if I can get one from Amazon then I might want to cancel this order but then again these lot seem alittle..I dunno there's a phone number address and everything, guess I'll call them tomorrow.
Do you think it's a good idea to order the games and accessories from them aswell I don't see how he'll or they'll get them?

21-11-2006, 11:26 AM
well i picked a bundle deal red steel and zelda, so i am getting the games too, they'll ship them all together

Swiv2d
05-12-2006, 01:42 AM
Alot of the games have an earlier release date is that true or would that be likely to change later?
I mean SSBB 22nd Dec and so's Metroid and Warioware on the 15th?

SuperJario
05-12-2006, 08:21 AM
Yeah quite a few haveb a early release date and from what i hear some shops are showing them on the shelves already. Oh well i suppose its on 3days to go.

budtom
05-12-2006, 04:01 PM
Yeah but they won't sell until release usually. Unless and game says it's release date is earlier. It's quite cool to see some games on the shelves, stores are going to have a big push for christmas with wii! The must have gaming console this christmas.

I ordered a Wii bundle from them 30th December and today when they re-opened it has been dispatched and should arrive either Thursday or Friday.

You do seem to pay a slight premium ordering from them, but I have no problem with that if I get the console sooner rather than later :)

they have sold out for now, ill have to wait and see if they get any in stock before my GAME order is dispatched (if it ever does get dispatched!!!)

Most people are in thinking that there is not much of a need for good time music boxes at this point right, but this is a short-term view. The reason Microsoft, Apple and Google etc are missing all of your data for the next step in computer technology. If you have uploaded all your data to a supplier, then you are less likely to go through the process of uploading all the same data to another supplier if you feel like switching, the cloud makes the moment it is difficult for the consumers change their brands, creating brand loyalty. That's why Google make it so simple, you load the same with MobileMe and iPhoto to find all your photos in Picasa or Apple. to increase over the next ten mobile networks in speed and range, computer equipment is increasing in power and it's only a matter of time before people the benefits of cloud computing with a least one or two services that they can not simply (facebook can live to see?). The cloud is undoubtedly part of the next step in the calculation but as with all technology story only time will tell who had the right strategy! Either way nothing from me, I just woke up and it's the weekend and I'm back to bed. iPad backup Mac (http://www.top-ipad-video-converter.com/ipad-magic-for-mac.html/) if your case is so tight it can't handle an extra 0.2mm then the case probably wont fit with a normal iPhone 4 that has a screen protector on it and maybe more like to give you glassgate� Incase Slider I'm looking at you

Yep, there seems to be one app in iTunes but don't know how it compare to the official Facebook feed � contents wise. But it is interesting that there is an official channel for this that is directly compatible with iOS devises. Now if only we had this level of control (live-able from the lives we intrude) access, maybe we could have avoided some very sad events. mkv to dvd converter (http://www.burnmkvtodvd.com/) Weekly calendar is still better than native Apple's iCal. Speaking of which, Apple's iPhone app weekly calendar moved without warning and refuses to talk to them. sad because it seriously a great app.

This is awesome. Getting the various editors opinions on any platform to speak other operating systems is large. I look forward to this play and I think that really one of the greatest strengths of the PES network. You have a large staff of editors and authors and that is a oppertunity for them to step out of their comfort zone. I also hope this brings the Smartphone Round Robin perhaps with tablets and phones that date. iPad to PC (http://www.topdvdtoipad.com/ipad-magic-win.html/) Y would anyone want an iPad to begin with. Even my thunderbolt from Verizon has more RAM and ROM then either iPad or iPad 2.. What a joke. They need to include on the next Apple products the option to include external memory slots, it should include DLNA technology without third party apps, and with less restrictions on there customers. Apple needs to catch up. Seems like technology is moving so fast, that when Apple thinks its finalized its product for production, something new hits the markets that they want implemented in their old idea, like 3D.

I have the CF kit from BG and iCarbon reviewed and truthfully After installing the iCarbon you find that the material is better, the fit is better, and will remain on your iPad where LFA-kit was associated strange-looking edges, and they began to Come Undone after 1 month. Another thing you get with iCarbon is a contrasting Apple logo. If you buy the black, it comes with the white Apple and Vic versa on the white. iCarbon want is $ 9.99 cheaper if your bezel also would run the whole kit change $ 29.99. BG is only with his back to the same price. I'm glad I do try iCarbon CF Kit, because it looks so much better than the BG decided. BG is fair, but I like my iPad not look perfectly funny. burn mkv to dvd (http://www.burnmkvtodvd.com/) I agree. I spend $ 70 on my smart cover like and how it up when I open it, I might, in conjunction with the Smart i will be sure to cover corners.

They went where they had to go, as the competition, with some nice bonuses thrown in. According to MobileMe, but now they have to prove they can do in this area.

My iPhone 4 is perfect in many ways. transfer iPod to mac (http://www.freeipodtransfer.com/ipod-transfer-mac.html/) Like with computers, one should buy if you need one now. If you don't need one, wait. Thats "need".The next big thing is always coming. If you always want the latest greatest. Spend the time and money to see one's existing device and buy the new device. There are lots of people who do that and get an iPhone every year.
