my email confirmation says expected delivery 1st Feb (did choose express though as I am desperate)....also got a new tv coming today so I want it asap....and in any case ready for the weekend!

Going to give Amazon a call just to check...

I just called Amazon customer services...they said that one was assigned to my order & I should get it tomorrow!

Mind you just looked at my Woolies order & it now says ready to bill...typical....hopefully I have managed to cancel that one in time!

i should get both my orders the same day. also if you wanna return a woolies order, you can just take it to a local branch for a full refund!

Great news everyone who secured an order, I can imagine how excited you all must be. Does this mean some of you may be taking the day off work tomorrow :lol:
I love the Wii, it's so different from any other console.....be sure to let us know what you think of yours and what games you got :D

vikki-croucher

31-01-2007, 02:22 PM

ive had an e-mail saying that my parcle has been dispatched. not been able to track it yet (need to bribe someone to stay in my house, when i have an idea of what day it will be arriving, as in my Wii Panic i registered for delivery to my home address, even though i knew i wouldnt be there!) So hopefully it should arrive soon! yay

ben

They will get sent out via city link over night from the amazon warehouse in bedford. you will get a traking number at around 8 tonight.

vikki-croucher

31-01-2007, 07:18 PM

still checking. hopefully if coming from bedford it should be here soon i only live 30 miles from there. thanks 4 the info.

lofiamanda

01-02-2007, 07:24 AM

just checked the tracking on Amazon...on schedule to arrive today yay!

however unfortunately my daughter has come down with chickenpox, so I have got to stay home & look after her....but lucky for me, I have to stay home & look after her too...so I will get plenty of Wii practice in before my husband comes home from work tonight :lol:

my wii has been dispatched for delivery from the depo in Northampton, only one small problem with the fact that it is being delivered to my house and im at work! ops! im hoping that either a) they leave it with one of my nice neighbours or b) i will be able to pick it up from a local depo before Saturday if they cant deliver it! i had someone who was going to wait at my house on Friday, but i would assume it would be delivered today, considering my trackers says left the depo for delivery.

Thank you Amazon!

I'm not sure I feel happy for him because he gets a Wii on his birthday or sad because your going to hold it to ransom and make him do all the ironing and washing up for a month :lol:

Well he does his own ironing and all the washing up anyway! so i dont think he would mind if i let him have it for agreeing to that! i would assume that he would just get home and squash me if i said he couldnt have it, so he will probably get it tonight, in fact he is probably already inviting people round to play on it! hehehehe
