If you want to buy a new console there is basically not much where you can go wrong. Of course there is always the price that is important for you as the buyer. But there are also other factors to consider: first there is the importance to find trusted sellers. Secondly, maybe you want to not only buy the console but also some more games or a special game like the Wii Fit.
The Wii comes with the great Wii Sports series which includes Tennis, Bowling, Golf, Baseball and Boxing. This is a lot of fun already. But of course there are more advanced games out there, for instance Nintendo's very own Super Mario Games, so maybe you want to look to get a great bundle.
Find Your Wii in Stock
In the past it often was a *real* hassle (I can certainly speak from experience here) to find a Wii in stock in smaller cities or even in big metropolitan stores, online as offline alike. This situation is getting better and the easiest strategy is to look on large online stores. So an obvious counter to those shortages is to look at big online places where people and merchants trade.
Where to Buy Wii
One of the best places here is eBay, since there are a lot of used Wii consoles being traded and also new ones offered to a fair price. It's just the biggest product marketplace in the world today.
Wired Magazine also mentioned eBay as one of the best sources for buying a Wii saying:
There's one place where you can buy a Wii any time, day or night, and have it guaranteed to be under the Christmas tree. ... that place is eBay. Just think about it this way: Using eBay to buy a Wii is like having your own personal shopper. ... someone else will get up at 4 a.m., stand in the cold, fight off soccer moms and bring home your Wii, while you sleep in and stay sane. Sounds like a fair trade to us.
On eBay, you can use the categories on top of the website to find what you are looking for. On the category-page then, you can just select the product you like and buy it safely at eBay. Or you can change the sort order and look for the lowest prices, newest offers or the auctions that end the soonest (default).
Buy Wii Safely
eBay not only has a huge amount of Wii consoles available, they also have great buyer protection and many trustworthy and transparent sellers. You can and should easily check their history and feedback rating. This alone can protect you from interacting with an untrustworthy seller and ensure a good buying experience.
It also feels good to know that if you buy Wii online with big trusted stores like eBay or Amazon, you profit from their buyer protection for free so that you usually don't run into any problems during the process of purchasing until delivery.
This applies whether you are looking for a new console or a used one in good condition. You can always check the credibility of the seller and use your own judgment if you look at his offer.
What Else Do You Need to Know to Buy a Wii?
I would suggest you to get two of the best games around right with the Wii, which are Super Mario Galaxy as well as Guitar Hero. Also the Wii Fit is an extremely popular add-on to the console system and it also could be a great decision if you are interested in losing some weight and stay fit. It's also a really educational product.
