    Quick Question...

    Is there are variation in price for Wii Points or do all shops sell them at the same price?

    I don't buy them with a credit card because I don't get on too well with Credit Cards (i.e. burns a hole in my pocket!!) so if anyone can tell me if I will have to continue pay €1 per 100 points or if there is a better option please let me know :)

    Thanks

    All shops dont charge the same. Zavvi and HMV used to charge 30 for 2000 points (not sure if they do anymore) but I havent seen any charge less than the recommended ratio you mentioned.

    Gamestop are the only ones that sell them at their proper price. 2000 points for 20 euros. You won't do better than that in the high street stores.

    My advice? Just buy them at the Wii Shop channel with the credit card. Or even better, check ebay.

    If you really don't want to use the credit card, then gamestop is the place to go. Most gaming stores have reduced the price to €20 per 2000 anyway.

    Wii points are under €16.50 on the Zavvi website. If you never ordered anything from them before then shipping is free, but if you have it is £2. They are about €18.20 if you are charged shipping so you are still saving a bit of money.

    Thanks Dman...just checking that there was not one selling them at Aldi or Lidl prices but the €20 for 2000 will do me.

    thanks lads :)
