I love the postman...

I got Crop Circles I (with rules) in the post from Cundco today!! Even as others started receiving it, I was still doubtful that I would get it. More details on today's package coming tonight (in multiple threads!) when I have more time.

You & me both. Glad it's here... one more step to completion (well the pseudocompletion of having all of the expansions apart from Cathars)
Whatever it is, it's probably in the post from Germany...

Well, next time !

It seems strange that they apparently had so many of these in stock and yet didn't think to offer them for sale as an expansion in the normal way on the website.

My thoughts exactly. With that in mind, as a gesture for them allowing my creative use of the spares service, I have sent them the cost difference between a set of spare tiles and a normal expansion to do with as they please.

Yes they could have said: 100 copies remaining.  1 per household.

They probably reprinted them (found them in the basement) and were going to save them for a Halloween treat, but then you guys went ahead and spoiled the surprise. 

I have 3 hours until the postman comes today.  Hopefully he brings me some old German magazines.

It seems I should be drowning in merit by now :p

Glad (some of) you guys and girls were able to get CC1. Bit bummed out I didn't get the rules haha.

I know but I'll probably wait with doing that when I have something else to order at Cundco.

I echo that sentiment!

Just to be clear-  people ordered via the tile replacement, the whole of the Corn Circle I expansion and didn't just get individual tiles, but a whole unpunched sheet with rules? Is that correct?

Bit of a shame that these weren't available openly (on limited run) on the Cundco rather than via tile replacement. Fair play to those managed to bag one! (not so much to those that ordered lots though  ;) )

Sorry to spoil Christmas Dirk :(

Christmas is only there to be ruined. I've now crossed more people off my Christmas card list than were ever on it in the first place...

+1 to this (even though you said the same thing as me O:-))

Can your postman dig a hole through the Earth to make Cundco shipping cheaper?
