youd think but some sites will have small print that says they have the right to change it at any time.

Quote from the site when you add to basket!!
'Please Note: This item is a pre order.

Please note we only allow one pre order of each product per customer.

This product is either due to be released or due in stock. You will not be charged for this item until it is in stock & is dispatched. The price of this pre order may change before you are charged however we will first inform you of any price changes and you can cancel the pre order if you wish'


Think I'm still going to pre-order so that hopefully beat the rush on sales when it is released. With the sales shortage of consoels at the moment, likely that fit will have the same issue when released?

That is usually a good trick played on customers. People preorder thinking it is going to be cheap price then when the merchandise comes out the shop notifies them of the change in price. Then those who have pre-ordered think: well sod it, it is going to be the same price elswhere too so i might as well buy it from here since i have preordered it.

Just an update on this.
The picture on Shopto's site has now changed to the WiiFit Box!
This must mean they've updated the page so they would've seen the price and, had it been wrong, changed it! But it's still £29.99

Displaying a product with a price is an invitation to trade, it is not a legally binding contract, I can take an item and display it with a price, however I can also decline an offer to buy that product. If it were contractual that would mean anyone displaying items with a price on the item or the shelf with that item would be forced to sell to whoever sees that product and price, which is simply not the case. If it were kids would have the legal right to buy cigerettes and alcohol as these are displayed in that way, meaning for shop keepers to uphold the law on age restrictions they'd be braking the law with regards to not selling the displayed product. You can't force people into a position of breaking 1 law to uphold another.

I think it's covered by both Trading Standards and the Sale of Goods Act, though I'm far too tired to check it now.

Check the link now, the image and everything else is updated.
RRP : £34.99
SHOPTO.NET : £29.99

EDIT : They seem to be the only shop taking pre-orders, hence the cheapest price at the moment Buy Wii Fit Compare Prices (Wii)
