Well... My order status says shipped, so I suppose it shouldn't take long now to arrive... or at least I hope so.

Merit for you for this tip. Mine says it's shipped but I didn't receive the email.

I am glad to hear

I have just recived the mail from spiebox! They send my the magazine the 17...

So my mailman bent the issue in half to fit in my mailbox. It ruined the carcassonne expansion, the sushi go cards, and the catan mobil piece I ordered.

Even though it had a huge "Do not bend" on it.

The US postal service is the worst.

I put in a new order on Saturday and will ship to my work. (Should have done that in the first place)

That is really disappointing , I always dread something like that happening with stuff coming through the mail. Very frustrating that these items are not sold locally especially when all these mini expansions can be bought in those small boxes – I really don't understand their marketing approach.

For mail order it would make much more sense to sell these items as a packet of individual tiles and in a decent box especially when they are being sold to individuals who are trying to collect the set in good condition.

You totally have to contact the post office... Force them to pay you for your loss..

Here in Finland, if something doesn't fit the hole, they ring the doorbell... If no-one open, they leave a note saying "you got a parcel that was too big for your hole, so go to local post office to get it"...

Then you go there, show the note, and they give you the package.. No extra cost.

Se here for pictures of the tiles from both Cundo and Spielbox.

Gerry · « **Reply #26 on:** October 20, 2014, 05:45:48 PM »

so apart from the triangle shape in common it is 2 different tilesets and you would have to buy both to get a complete set.

I hope mine comes in soon.

I am kinda surprised they used a city on the long side. At least there will be plenty of options for a fan version.

I love the different fan-made expansions with Forests and Mountains. They have beautiful artwork and the rules are well thought trough. We always use them when we play Mega-Car.

Now I hope for fan-made Haflings with Forests and Mountains.

It would make it easier to use the different Forests and Mountains expansions in smaller games.

For this purpose it would be good to have only fields at the long side ...
