We have a fucking massive Tesco (Extra?) near here that keep getting the odd one or two in now and again, but you cant reserve them so it's pot luck

Mine came from Littlewoods in the summer after waiting a month for it. Next door neighbour had one arrive on the same day from Argos online that was ordered around a month earlier.

Didnt know they were that hard to get hold of now. Got mine through ebay a few months ago. Brand new/unused still sealed for £160 and picked it up from cannock. Hmmm, shall i keep it or sell it
Prices will no doubt drop after xmas.

I point blankly refuse to pay a penny more than £179.99 for a new 1 and if my kids have to they will have to wait until after xmas to get theirs.....

Ebay's a fookin joke as well

I've done that "text and reserve" thing on Argos where they text you when they have them in stock and you text back "reserve" and they keep it for 24hrs.
