I just bought a Wii on eBay yesterday...yes, I overpaid, but it came with Wii Play, an extra nunchuk, and the new Mario game, so I didn't care too much. The wife really wanted one for Christmas, so I figured what the heck...it would've been harder to think of a different "big" gift idea for her. I rarely splurge on too much stuff, so it's not a big deal.
