Default Im screwed...

I sold my Nintendo wii on ebay to buy an Xbox 360.....Well My Wii was shipped like 8 or 9 days ago Priority, so it should have only taken like 3-4 days to get to where its supposed to go....My money isnt here yet and it should be here tommorow, but heres the thing, apparently, my wii hasnt arrived in Wisconsin where its supposed to be. So heres what could have happened, The guy i sent it to could have the nintendo wii right now and be lieing and saying he doesnt have it so he gets his money back, or, He hasnt got it yet, or Security thought there was a chance it could be a bomb so they sent it on ground.....If they sent it on ground it still should have been in Wisconsin by now....I also didnt put it so he had to sign to get it or put a tracking # on it which im so mad i didnt do, so theres absolutely NO proof that he really hasnt got it. I dont know this guy so i dont know if he is the type to lie or what, but he only has like 5 feedback and thats not alot.

I dont know what to do right now but i guess all i can do is wait idk....Help me out here please

Thanx guys

I don't know what to tell you. You should have shipped it UPS, or sent it priority mail so you would get a tracking number. I wouldn't have shipped it until I had the money in my account.

Make sure you buy Halo 3. And get a premium or an Elite. Core sucks.

Don't get F.E.A.R if you dont like horror games. It would tak me 10 minutes to take a few steps through a dark creepy tunnel.

yaaa oblivions price dropped to 30 bucks woohoo!!! so its oblivion or another game with fun online play. I was hoping to get a game with online play......Any fun CHEAP games (like 20-30 bucks) that have good online play?

if not i guess i can wait 3 months till christmas to get an online game but i was hoping not (if only oblivion had online play)



AWWWW FRIG, oblivion is only 30 bucks at best buy. Theres no best buy around, just walmart and a gaming store and FYE. Well guess thats out of the choices

oblivion is part of the classics collection now. Just stay in that Platinum collections list and you will get plenty of cheap and fun gaming.

And today's lesson ... as already stated by everyone else, receive payment before you ship anything.

I just got my Elite on Thursday, I won a few games on e-bay last week, of which nothing has arrived yet. *ACK*, so of course I had to stop at the closest game store to pick up a few used games.

I picked up the XBL Live Arcade Unplugged, Dead or Alive 4, Saint's Row, and PGR3.

So far, I have been having a blast playing PGR3, it still has a decent number of online players and I have been rapidly improving in the game. I have spent about 85% of my time on the XBOX with that game.

About 10% with XBL Arcade (mainly for the wife), and a short time with DA4 when playing with my son and he wants to "fight".

I popped in Saint's Row as it had gotten good reviews, played it for like 30-40 minutes and it really isn't my genre. I never have play Grand Theft Auto or any of those, so I wasn't sure what to expect. Just not my bag of tea, so I'll be selling that one for about $25.

All really depends on what you like for games, I'm trying to figure it out as I go, as I have only had a Wii and Gamecube for the little one (5yo) and before that I think my last console was like a Colecovision after my Atari and the Magnavox Odyssey˛ (Yes I am seriously dating myself).

Other than that I have done mostly computer gaming sticking with WC I, II, & III, then Starcraft, WoW, etc....

Personally, I picked up PGR3 for like $9.95 used with no scratches and it has been the best $10 so far! I have Forza2 and Gears of War coming next week through e-bay auctions, so we'll see how they fair out.

Also, like others have said, get your money first ALWAYS before shipping and also spend the extra couple of dollars shipping with UPS. Their tracking system is worth their weight in Gold when/if a problem pops up.

Happy gaming!
