Thanks for the heads up. :tup: I picked one up for my cousin that has been bugging me to help her find one.

They said they had about 40. When I was there is was down to 20 or so, and there was 5 people in line behind me buying one.

Are they really that hard to find? I sat outside 15 hours for xbox 360 2 years ago and only made 150 bux.

Is this any different?

Wii’s are the high demand toy of 2007. Everyone wants one and the basic systems that retail for $249 are selling for $350-400 on ebay. The basic system with an extra nunchuck and remote which are about $300 are going for $500-600. Sick.
