Le Zapper

0Darren23rd Jan 2008Wii

The Wii Zapper was released in early December and I, probably like many others, thought I’d buy myself one in my local Tescos or Asda. However, as it turns out the Zapper has been one of the most sought after Wii accessories, fetching silly prices on Ebay. Not willing to pay £40 for something which retails at £19.99 I’ve been surfing sites such as Game, Argos, Toys R Us etc for weeks – but they’re all out of stock!

A couple of weeks ago I seen a post on my current favourite site www.hotdealsuk.co.uk which stated that Amazon France had the Wii Zapper in stock. Despite taking annual holidays in France I’m still somewhat rusty with the lingo but I proceeded and successfully ordered a Zapper. However, it’s still not arrived, 5 days after the estimated arrival date so I sent an email through the site to check if it definitely had been dispatched. At the time I thought it’ll take a few days to get a reply, it’ll probably be in French and I’ll have to use Babelfish BUT… much to my surprise 5mins later, yes 5mins later I get a reply, in English, saying it had been dispatched and to wait 2 more days before coming back to them. Now that’s what I call excellent customer service, Vive La France!
