Was just looking at the FPP store, and they have a Wii in there now for 24000 FPP's. This seems way overpriced, but since they are hard to get still (i think) it may be worth it.

thoughts?

Are they still hard to get?

In the UK it seems to be a case of just ordering but having to wait 6 weeks.

I'm not sure about the FPP to hard cash ratio but I'm guessing that you're probably paying over the odds for everything.

You won't regret getting a Wii

its only 1000 FPPs less than a $285 goldstar bonus, so it works out (roughly) to about $275, so its really not worth it.

What's the retail on a Wii in the US then?

Over here they're around £180 (or $360). $275 sounds like a bargain to me.

You could setup some sweet deals with UK FTR members who wanted a Wii in exchange for $$ on Stars/Paypal.

Wii retail is $249 in the US. I wouldn't get one, though. Me and my housemate chipped in for one and it's a decent novelty item, good for when people who don't normally play video games want to hang out. (Think drinking games, esp. when chicks come over, but otherwise I haven't played mine in months.)

i got one about a month ago when he had 10 in stock and posted it on 2+2. Took about 2 weeks to get and i like it, its a great party system. I had a ton of fpps and the hassle of finding one and all that jazz made me just oder it from stars.
