Ark of the Covenant availability

[Paul]

Preliminary info regarding this item:

Item: Carcassonne - Ark of the Covenant (Scandinavian / Finnish version with rules in Danish, Finnish, Norweigan and Swedish)
Store price: 239 SEK*
Shipping to Europe (EU): 154 SEK
Shipping to the rest of the world: 184 SEK

Total cost for European address: 393 SEK or 42,62 Euro (today's exchange)

Total cost for the rest of the world: 423 SEK or 57,02 USD (today's exchange)

*SEK = Swedish Krona

Let me know if still interested. Today I am heading out to get at least 1 copy and see how many are left. There's an alternate store that can ship directly though shipping cost will increase around 7 Euro for example if within Europe.

Still interested

Three copies to buy then.

Alright!

So yesterday was a crazy day as the work server crashed and came online literally 15 mins before the end of my shift, meaning I had to cramp an entire day of work into those 15 mins. Let's just say, Monday will be fun for me. 

But, I did manage to reach the store before closing time, ten minutes prior! They had only one copy in but there's 8 more in another city, which I ordered in 3 that will arrive next week.

So this one copy I have atm, will be shipped to the first on the list.



On my way to the tram station I met an old friend and ended up with that person overnight at their place reminiscing old memories. Back home now only to freshen up and heading out soon again!

There is a CAR for the Ark of the Covenant here: https://elrestaurador.files.wordpress.com/2013/02/03-el-arca-de-la-alianza.pdf

Parents gave us as New Year's present our first serious board game - Monopoly. All stuff and rules were in English, but we didn't know a word in English! So, we invented our own rules, all hotels were meeples, rent for visiting states (real estates were USA states) was their mortgage value (half a price!), etc.

This is amazing! I bet you created a better game than the real monopoly!

Thanks for the link, jungleboy! This is exactly what I need!

The CAR for the AotC was compiled by me for CarcassonneCentral and is available in the downloads section on this very site!

It's a great version of Carcassonne and, in my opinion, it is by far the best version of 'vanilla' Carcassonne.

I just bought a "Baumeister des Königs" on German Ebay, so I don't need a 2nd "Ark of the Covenant". Thank you for your efforts until now.

This Saturday December 6, I will get 3 more copies of Ark of the Covenant.

If anyone is still interested let me know. Currently I can obtain 8 copies total, including these three.

Also, are there any interest in other variants? I know a few stores here still have New World and Discovery. Some are actually lowered in price as sales to get rid of them.

I can compile a list here on what is available and prices. As always, you pay for actual store cost and shipping. I make no profit at all from this. Just happy to help, inspired by others on this forum!

New World could be interesting
Merit for that you are doing this for the community.

Hi Yellow!

     I'm interested in both, the New World and the Discovery. Hope you can add me to the list of buyers :-)

No trouble, at all. In fact, you are on the top of the list for New World and Discovery.  I'll scavenge on Saturday before afternoon as there is a window of opportunity then with no work, no family, no friends, no sports and no women.

I am interested but need price first. This community continual amazes me how good it is!!

Did a little pre-con, awaiting answers from some of the stores.

New World seems to have vanished from the face of the earth, though I could've sworn I've seen it in one of the local stores. Going to visit it this Saturday. The store is a bit mischief and have no trouble lying to a customer. If I didn't get a few good buys from there, I'd diss him instantly or maybe even report him.

A good recent example: I ask the store owner how many of certain game is available and he says that's the last one. I buy it, knowing it's out of print, albeit a fair price, and same week I find out he restocked. 

Now, The Discovery on the other hand, I have a few copies. What I can't verify yet is if these are Scandinavian / Finnish release or the English version. Preliminary estimate would be a total of 40 Euro for the game and shipping in total depending how many I order, if it's shipped internationally. Within Europe Union it would be less. I may be able to truncate the price down to 38 Euro.

More updates coming later this week. 

[Paul]

A little update:

1x Carcassonne - The Discovery - English, 41 Euro outside of European Union.

1x Carcassonne - The Castle - Scandinavian (no Finnish) - 43 Euro outside European Union.

These prices are what you would pay for item and shipping total. Shipping will be somewhat lower if sent within European Union.

I might be interested in the Castle! Let me think about it

Put me on the list for The New World, in case you manage to get hold of it.
