Refurbished Wiis scam, rip-off Internet
On August 21, 2008 I purchased a refurbished wii from www.refurbishedwii.com for $19.99 with free shipping. I kept checking every once in a while for my order status. It said it was awaiting bulk shipment from a warehouse, then it said something about going through customs in China and other stuff. I finally called their number, 877-418-3392 last week and left a voice message asking them to call me back as to why it is taking so long to receive my wii. A few days later, their website disappeared and I still have not received my wii. Here is a copy of the email confirmation of the order:
