I work at one such retailer, and no, we aren't lieing when we say we have no idea when they are coming in. Seeing as there is such a huge demand, it is labeled as a "rush item." So when it shows up, it shows up. We are told we will get them in once a week (which is often not the case), and sometimes we are told a day (2 days at most) before the actual day we get them. And in those cases we tell customers when we expect them. But think about this, if we stopped "lieing" and told you a day, and they didn't come in, wouldn't you have more to b*tch about? So no, we aren't going to take the chance and say for sure they are coming in on a certain day because A) most of the time we honestly don't know, as the higher ups don't tell us unless it is definite and B) even if we do tell you a date, you'll probably just come in at let's say 12 pm thinking that is 'early enough' and get pissed off they are "sold out already." Yea... yea they are - know why? Because they sell out in about 5 to 10 minutes. So, good luck in obtaining a Wii at this point, and keep sending your hate mail to Nintendo, in fact, I encourage it, just stop directing all the hate towards people like me. It's wasted energy - might as well use that energy to do something productive while you wait for the big N to start providing the Wii on a more regular basis.
