News from the CundCo Shop

Cundco takes Paypal.

Thanks for that info!  Tried their contact email address and everything appeared to go through ok.

So how many of the CC faithful already had a copy of The School (Die Schule)?

[BT]

The School is great fun. I hope you enjoy it.

CundCo provide excellent service. I bought my copy from them and it was a very quick delivery. I'm in Australia too and my memory is that the shipping costs were very reasonable too.

Welcome to the forums harvster... It's great to see other Australian Carcassonne players here.

That's always good to hear!

At the CundCo Shop we have a new article:

Carcassonne Zaehltafel "Magneto"

Carcassonne scoringboard "Magneto"

included 10 magnets (size - normal follower) -
colours standard: yellow, blue, red, green, black, grey
colours special: orange, brown, pink, white

Price: 24,99 EUR
-----------------------------

My own thoughts:
There are no magnets for the Mini "The Robbers" and also not "The Messagers".

[Arvid84]

That scoringboard might come in handy, takes less space on the table and gives all player a better overview of their position on the score track. Yet I feel that the price 24,99 euro is a bit too high (even a few euro's more than the base game)...

Harvster, I ordered the School along with several other things to Australia. I payed by PayPal. There service was pretty good, but there was a huge hold-up in Australian customs because the cookie cutters were declared as kitchen appliances and they thought they might be knives, they were going to charge us $120 for opening them up to check that the package was safe.

I also like the idea of a magnetic scoreboard, but can't justify the price. I might design my own and repaint some magnets.

I was thinking the same thing. Great idea, but too much money. Also planning on doing something homemade.

What?!!  I suppose it does include the word "cutters" (and who knew box cutters could be so bad) but...  Well done on convincing them not to charge you.  $120.  That's amazing.
Do wooden spoons qualify as kitchen appliances?  :-)

I would ask the sender to specify them more clearly. The guys at CundCo did the best they could... just didn't imagine it would cause more than a month delay.

Who would?!  But makes for a great story now!  :-)  I'm still trying to work out why it costs $120 to open up what I would imagine to be a small package that probably didn't even weigh enough to be carrying knives...

We ordered a lot because all the members of our Carc group wanted something. So it was a decent size box.... It still baffles me though

Don't really know what merits (just noticed them!) are but they sound like something you deserve to get in going above and beyond the call of duty for your mates!

Exactly, they are a pat on the back and attaboy for doing a good turn for the site community or a member in particular (which improves community health). You can find the "[give merit]" link right below the member's avitar.

On that basis Carcking, thanks for all the help you've previously (most of that was a couple of months ago), along with now, that you've given me!

In fact there's a number of people on this site that I have some helpful interaction with.  Including working on resolving some questions about castles along with scoring points and collecting gold.  :-)

Always glad to be of some use!
