Thanks, they appear to have them in stock too, but the total
cost inc. next day is quite high ~95 quid. I'll see how it's
looking tomorrow as far as ordering on the web or driving 20
miles to PC World.

Can someone in the U.K. confirm if PC World stocks the Logitech
Wingman FF USB steering wheel and if so, for how much? I've order
the wheel through gameplay.com and jungle.com and had to cancel
both after discovering that I would have to wait ages for them to
restock (jungle's site outright lied about the availability).
In fact, if anyone in the U.K. knows of an online retailer that
has the wheel in stock for around 80-90 pounds, I'd be very
interested to know about it.
Cheers,

I see them in dixons a lot, if your branch doesn't have it they easily get
it from one which does for you.

Well, Dixons owns PC World, so it would make sense, but last
time I went into Dixons, they only had the Guillemot and the MS
wheel, with the MS wheel at a hundred quid, which is about 15-20
quid off the pace for competitive retailers. There's a large
Curry's (also Dixons) near me, and that also only had the MS
wheel, at the same price (surprise).
I've been told that the Logitechs have been spotted in PC World,
which is a 30 minute drive for me, but they don't list them on
the website, so I'd like to know how much they are.

Isn't there a new model about to be released? that may be why no one has the
old model in stock.

If you mean the GP version, then possibly. That would be a bit
annoying though, because the GP version isn't as good -- it's
intended to be a budget FF wheel, not a replacement for the
original.
Not quite as annoying as Jungle.com telling me that yes they had
cancelled my order, but because the order was "about to be
dispatched", they had debited my card already. Apparently,
sending in two days is "about to be dispatched", and that's good
enough to grab my cash and hold onto it for 10 days. I pointed
out that I told them why I was cancelling the order (because it
wouldn't arrive until next Monday), and that if it really was
"about to be dispatched" then I'd be glad to get it. Otherwise,
I'd like to know where they get off telling people that stuff is
in stock and ready to go, then changing the story once the card
has been debited (along with payment for next-day delivery).

Well the Irish PC World didn't even know what an LWFF was so I wouldn't
expect too much. I had to ring all over the country to find one. I finally
found one but had to travel half way up the country. And still not and RS
wheel in sight or any other for that matter.
As of late Guilmot did come in here.
Well my point is that for some reason they're not something you'll find
everywhere. But if you do, look for it in the �100 range, I got mine for
�100 Irish punts so Sterling should really be less again, some places way
overcharge as high as �150.

Just to put a cap on this one. Thanks to everyone for your
answers. In the end I had to work late, so PC World was out of
the question. I decided to give jungle another go, hoping that
the customer support guy was being honest when he said that it
was all a bit of a mixup. The same thing happened, in stock, in
stock, in stock... oh, we'll be sending it out on Monday. This
time though, I hung on, resigned to possibly waiting. At about
ten to nine, I was just starting to write an email to their
support team to tell them that they had screwed up again, and
billed my CC before sending, when the order status flipped to
"shipped".
In short, they have a broken order status system, but it looks
like they might actually be on the up and up about stock levels
and next day delivery. If I don't get the goods tomorrow, I'll
post again, but otherwise I give jungle.com the all clear.
Thanks again, chaps,
mwtb
I ordered mine from www.simply.com
it was a cheap price, free delivery if ordered from web and they had shit
loads in stock. �88 I think it was, and it came no probs...
