The Wii is in the Poker Stars store now. 24,000 FPPs, Gold Star, US and Canada.

Hmm, how's that work out on FPP value? Seems like the $285 bonus may be a better value.

Wii is like 1.4-1.5c/fpp, the bonus is 1.1

The Wii only cost $250 so even with tax added on its still worse than the $285 bonus. Plus if you get the bonus you save a month+ in shipping times.

very true, the only thing going for PS is that there's a limited amount of supplies and I'm sure they are using that to up the costs. I just can't see myself to throw away money making this purchase as compared to just cashing out 285.

Yeah, since Wiis still aren't available in practical terms (sorry, I don't wake up that early on Saturday), I can see them charging a premium for the time being for the convenience. But the price will have to come down eventually.

Xbox will be here in a couple hours. UPS called yesterday and said I needed to be here between 8am and 7pm to sign for it, nice timeframe.

Is there a reason nobody counts the additional rake one would have to generate to clear a $285 bonus when it comes to calculating FPP value?

Supernovas:

The concierge isnt just for items worth <3k.

Go to Best Buy (or whatever electronic store), and buy whatever game system/games/controllers you want. Save the receipt, scan it, and email it to the vip club. They credit the amount to your account at the concierge rate.

No waiting for shipping or anything, instant gratification!

[/ QUOTE ]

don't go around making impromptu purchases and assume you'll be reimbursed though. i'd run any inquiries through the VIP store or ScottyY before doing this.
