to the person that said it emptied your basket when you tried to checkout GBP
you have to make sure you haven't selected any of the import duties/postage type things
so basically just click the wii press checkout and then you can decide
I'm oredering mine now :D
if anyones orders from them let us know so please

I've posted my order...
it said they needed up to 24 hours to verify my order and that my credit card hadn't been charged
and that they would send me conformation that my order was verified as an email
I'm not sure if I made the right choice :shock:

19-12-2006, 01:14 PM
that happened to me aswell I just clicked 'clear cart'
I wouldn't think it's anything to worry about just cookies storing recent information
sweeten16
19-12-2006, 01:17 PM
i click clear cart it still wont go away??
stanton_warrior
19-12-2006, 01:46 PM
oh fair enough
well if you've ordered it already just leave it
if you don't click anything to do with submitting any information you'll be fine
I hope they verify my order soon
I want to know when I'm getting it :D
stanton_warrior
19-12-2006, 01:47 PM
**** I just had a thought
what if the Wiis they are selling are NTUSC (I think that's what the American format is called)
and not PAL?!
I don't want to import all my games :O
before you order think about the customs duty to pay and how long it might take to get here?...whenever I have ordered anything into this country....out parcel service is absolutely dire!!! I have just send somethng to Germany that was meant to be in Germany for the next day at a cost of £75 and it stayed in a depot in Welwyn garden city for two days before some lazyarsed gobsh*te could be bothered to do anything with it...when it finally arrived in Germany...the box was a complete mess...even though had "FRAGILE" posted all over it...you might as well wait for UK stock as warranty may be problem as well???

sweeten16
19-12-2006, 02:38 PM
how do you cancel???
stanton_warrior
19-12-2006, 02:41 PM
I'm not sure actually, but it turns out my order with Play was a glitch
so I cancelled it with them instead
lying bast*rds!
sweeten16
19-12-2006, 02:43 PM
my dad going to go crazy if i have to import games all the time :(
stanton_warrior
19-12-2006, 02:44 PM
I sent them a question asking if the Wii was American format or PAL
so I'll tell you as soon as I find out
there'll definetely be a way to cancel anyway if you don't want to risk it

stanton_warrior
19-12-2006, 02:57 PM
It does say they need 24 hours to verify stuff
and it looks very professional so I wouldn't worry too much
scam sites tend to look cheap as ****

Hello Ladies and Gents.
Just rang that number and a Yank voice says it is no longer in use. Odd, as address is showing as Tottenham Court Rd. Looks a bit iffy to be honest.
Also done a websearch fpr RSS-Sale, and get lots of Page Cannot Be displayed........

The Wii isn't region coded. You'll be able to play english games on an American wii and vice versa. The only problem will be the plug but that can be remedied with an adaptor which are freely available in most electronic shops.

thanks!
I'm pretty sure it should be English anyway as the warehouse is in London
but thanks for the reassurance :D

Boys & Girls,
I advise all you who have ordered from this site to cancel you're credit cards immediately!
I ordered a Wii last friday and had £1000 rinsed out of my account in the space of three days.
Its a massive scam - chances are they will be trying it with you're cards as we speak.
Sorry guys, only just found out today after checking my account.
Let me know how it goes..

19-12-2006, 08:23 PM

sweeten16
