I will pray to the Retail Gods that there is enough supply of Wii-Us that every reseller has to sell their stockpiled units at a loss. Seriously, you guys are vultures.

I can only hope for another PS3-style launch for these resellers.

Why would I have to sell at a Loss? EVERY store has a 30 day return Policy... if that happens all i do is return them Though It is to be said i did this for the ps3 launch got 4 units in total sold 3 for 1200 or so each and kept one for myself which to this day i still own, i used the profits to fince a HD tv and a ps3. back then this time i am just looking to finace my wii and a whackload of games. And everyone had the same Chance we "vultures" did not to mention some folks are just not able to be at the store at the time needed for a line and missed preorders Us vultures are providing a service, Like homeless folks being paid to stand in line Were Just being paid to be a Personal shopper for The affluent who Want the console without any hassles.

My local EBgames sold out of the deluxe WiiU, but has like 20 standard white WiiU's...and i'm pretty sure every other store in my town is the same.
EDIT: Oh and my EBgames is just a small ass store in our local mall. It keeps maybe 2-3 of each console in stock normally.

So. Yeah. I could play the supply&demand game but i'm just too damn lazy. Guess I could always sell a bunch on ebay and then buy what I sell from the store afterwards...eh.

ya noone seems very interested in the white system Honestly its not that different for most folks but for 50 bucks i like the storage and game and the stands are a joke rofl. 3 itty bitty plastic pieces
but oh well the deluxe digital promo is nice.

I love how the intelligent people are the ones being antagonized in this topic... to much jelly everywhere.

The true dick move is the guy at my walmart, him and his wife both preorder two each, then sat there and looked at the parents trying to make xmas come true and said you know we are just putting these on ebay (didnt want a single one) and they sold them for 500 right to people in line that wernt going to get a black one (there was extras there but mostly white ones)

i tend to avoid Trying to sell to People in the Lineup It ends badly, Unless i am approached to Sell my spot in line P:) Then I will gladly jump on it but i avoid being the initiater. for that type of transaction afterall i have to stand there for How many hours beside these people better to not antagonize them all as You can see from the general consensus of tempers I am a Bloody Wanker p:)
