I can't find one anywhere, online or off.

eBay. Check your local gamestore to see if they have any used ones.

I just bought one from a online gaming forum that i visit regularly. $45 for Wavebird, Ikaruga (GC), Black controller, Mario Kart Double Dash (GC), Zelda Collectors Disc (GC), official memory card. Sellers dog ate the receiver the day he was shipping so I have to buy it from Nintendo.

You probably already checked your local Walmart? I know mine just got a boat load of Wavebird's in, a few weeks ago. It was crazy. I'm talking like 25-30 of the damn things! They even had their own 'end of the aisle' display set up.

I got all four of mine used and in perfect shape at Gamestop. $17.99 (or ~$16.20 with edge card) for each, and, if you're upgrading, you can also trade in a wired controller for a few dollars off of that. If you find three during a B2G1, it comes to less than $11 each.

Check K-Mart. Most stores have had them clearanced for a while, but you can probably still find one.

If Kmart still has those and the specially marked Metroid Prime that says you get a free Wavebird with MP, grab it. It'll cost you $20, but here's the kicker. The machine won't recognize the deal, so they more often than not will penny the Wavebird for you. Afterwards, just bring the game back sealed to Customer Service later on and tell them you just want a refund.

In the end, you get your $20 back and only paid a penny for the Wavebird. That's how I got my second one. :D

I'm pretty sure Target's got 'em...but they are a little pricey (~$30)

EB only had used wired ones and there was no Gamecube accessories at Wal*Mart. I guess I'll have to break down and drive the extra thirty minutes so I can check the stores down town. Then I can fill my Q with Gamecube games.
