Wii Fit Plus sold out

TuneMyHeart · 01-15-2010, 07:43 PM

why is this sold out every single place I look (the bundle with the balance board)?

Castle On A Cloud · 01-15-2010, 08:02 PM

Cause everyone wants it

It is wierd. We were able to go the 26th and 27th of dec and found everything we need, but this past weekend had to look ALL over to find one for my mom...

If you buy online it's on Amazon right now: http://www.amazon.com/Wii-Fit-Plus-B...3611057&sr=8-3

TuneMyHeart · 01-15-2010, 08:05 PM

it's out of stock on amazon too; I checked there.

I could not find either the pkg or just the wii fit plus software (I already have the board) this last week when I was looking in the stores. Demand must have been high after the new year! Good luck in your search.

Kim, Target has just the wii fit plus software if that's all you need. I had no idea this was so popular. Last time I was at Costco, they had a ton of them.

So weird... I'm looking at Amazon right now and it says there are 15 new & used starting @ $99

TuneMyHeart · 01-15-2010, 08:11 PM

did you click on the package with the balance board?

Close2MyHeart · 01-15-2010, 08:12 PM

Ohh! I see... it does say out of stock. I wonder why it says that and also says it has 15 new available? So odd...

StumblinMama · 01-15-2010, 08:13 PM

Because the manufacturer is creating a false sense of demand by only distributing a limited amount of product

. When people are slightly interested and see that it is "so popular that it is sold out everywhere", then that makes them want it all the more.

TuneMyHeart · 01-15-2010, 08:16 PM

oh, I see that too. that is very strange...

I found a list of retailers who have it on stock, but it's $130 and up plus shipping. I don't want it that badly.

I had no idea it was this popular at all, so their strategy isn't working on me.
