Where can i get a nintendo DS lite

For the first time in my life I thought I would try and do the Christmas shopping before Christmas eve.

The result is so has everyone else and I still cant get what I want.


Any idea of anywhere (online or retail in Hants) that is stocking the Nintendo DS lite (new)?

in my boredom moment, i tried finding one on argos, no luck searching for a silver one.

Order from Amazon, they may not be able to source them.

Got one this morning by pure luck, was in woolies getting cards when the delivery arrived.

£99 as well which is much better than the £150+postage I have seen them going for on ebay.
