GameStop slaps $10 'handling charge' on Wii Fit

This is a bit of a strange one, and something we can't see many consumers agreeing with. It seems that retailer GameStop is charging a non-refundable handling fee of $9.99 USD when purchasing Wii Fit online.

This clause in the agreement (along with a limit of two copies per household) bumps the price of the game and Balance Board up from $89.99 USD to a total of $99.99 USD.

So, if you're a North American gamer scrambling for a pre-order, you might want to try elsewhere (such as BestBuy) than GameStop first.
