Anyone want a EU Freeloader?

Hello guys. This is yours truly once again. Over a week ago, I found out that a Wii Freeloader is going to be released and you don't know how much that made me happy because I didn't need to wait several months to get the PAL version of Super Smash Bros Brawl. I ended up ordering the game on videogamesplus.ca since I have bought two games from them in the past and they came here in 3-4 days, which was excellent in my opinion considering they are situated in Canada.

I pre-ordered a Freeloader from codejunkies.com since I heard that it would be the first place to have them and thus would get it there sooner than when other places started selling them. Boy was I ever wrong. I ordered the Freeloader on the 28th February and over a week went by and nothing changed. It wasn't paid for yet, it didn't even ship and it was still in process and boy was I annoyed. I said to myself, "I will be getting Brawl before the Freeloader at this rate!". Therefore I decided to look on ebay and see if there were any for sale and there were but most of them were packaged in with the US version of Brawl and were costing from around £40+, which I found ridiculous. I found one for the normal price and only 1.95 p & p, which was great considering codejunkies.com were charging more than twice that price (5.21 to be exact). I was looking at this thread on NeoGaf occasionally and seeing people that had the same problem with codejunkies in that their orders were still in process and not paid for and then I found out about how the site is poorly done and that they don't notify you if they are out of stock or whatnot. I emailed them a few times wishing to cancel my order and never got a reply.

I heard about this other site called divineo.co.uk in that it has it in stock and it ships pretty fast and being the idiot that I am, I ordered it from there too (as I had suspicions about the one on ebay, don't know why). Well, to end this little story, I received both of them today and thus I have a spare Freeloader. I cancelled the one from codejunkies by phone since I got a number I can call from that thread on NeoGaf. My copy of Brawl was shipped yesterday, so by any luck I will have that by Thursday or Friday at the latest.

So if anyone from the UK who has a Wii is interested in a Freeloader then let me know as soon as possible or else this little baby is going up on ebay. Sorry for rambling on about the whole scenario but I just wanted to explain how it all came about. PM me or leave me a comment below if you are interested and we will sort out something.

In other news, click here. Enough said. :) Anyway, that is all from me right now. I will have a video up when I get Brawl and play some and have some impressions of it etc. Also, if you guys want to play with me online in Brawl, PM me or comment below your Brawl codes and will add you guys on when I receive it. I got James' (Jimbo) code thus far but I want more of course.

That's all for now. Toodles
