Got lucky, I think it was the item description that did it, people are listing wii's "with five games" when it is just the sports disc that comes with the wii, or listing them as having six games when it is really just one additional game.

This is how this one was listed...

"Nintendo Wii - New(Un-opened) - In Hand. Ready to ship
6 Games, Extra Controller, Warranty, 1Gb Mem Card"

Here are a couple of pics,

The goods

My son will be thrilled with this setup, and I am pleased to get a deal like this without having to camp out or fight mobs :D

I actually got it for $0.06 less than he paid :D I won the auction for $772.00 and you can see on the invoice that he paid $772.06 :laugh: but I do have to pay $14.00 s&h ($10.00 ship/$4.00 ins.)

Exactly, not to mention the mag subscription and Gamestop protection plan.

Just a Wii? No.

A Wii + tons of games and accessories? Yes.

Oh btw, if you have an expensive TV, I am assuming you do by your spending habits, you might want to duct tape the wiimote to your sons hand whenever he plays.

Be prepared to re-sell red steel. After you vomit while playing it. Unless you like cheap time machines.

Always brag AFTER you get it in your hands. Until then, your package isn't safe from bad sellers, UPS guys, and GOD. you heard me... God hates the Wii.

Thats nothing........I got a used 360 premium this summer with 3 games for $300 cash...it got knocked off the media center and the DVD drive broke, so I parted it out and made $365 off it. ;)

Hmm, thanks SSP, I didnt know about possible divine intervention, I used AmEx, will they cover me for that?

I had heard about Red Steel Oceandevi, I was actually considering exchanging it at EB games for something else.

:) I have also heard about wiimotes flying off the handle randay but I was thinking about setting up a glove with some velcro.
