Title: Wii consoles already out...in different colors too?!?!
Post by: GoldenPhoenix on October 18, 2006, 10:54:55 PM
I was looking for Wii on ebay and came accross this. Seems REALLY suspicious to me, and I have a feeling someone is going to get screwed.

"This console we have is GREEN, however, we can get you other colrs if you do not want green. It will only take a few days longer if you decide to go with another color. ... Only a 1 remaining. Get yours NOW."

So wait, there is only one remaining but they can get other colors? Wha?

Anyway, I'm sure a "0 History" account will be the highest bidder when it closes (as one is right now), and then never pay costing the person who listed this some money in the end... so everything will work out.

Hopefully but I remember back a year ago how people were bidding like 200-500$ for that mcdonald's monopoly game. Turns out the supposed winning pieces were actually cut out of the gameboard yet there were people who got burned big time.

You know what that sounds almost exactly like.  The PS3 scam on Infernal's Blog.

They had this picture with an arrow pointing to the green one. ...very high tech, and impossible to fake...

Of course, GREY gets love, but no blue OR yellow...

I think I may have already mentioned that I painted my living room Wii green.   It looks awesome, and actually goes very well with the white Wii, although I'm still considering repainting my Wii.

Edit: it doesn't go so well with my indigo GameCube, though.
