Title: Ebay Auction: Count, Cult King
Post by: mPony on December 20, 2015, 01:42:57 PM
Looks like someone (not me) got hold of 15 boxes of Count, Cult and King and are auctioning everything without boxes  :-\  I have no idea who would want to do this but I figured someone might want to jump in and take a look:

You were the first person I thought of when I saw this. There was a day when you'd have bought them all if the price was right!

Strange. No watermarks on the King tiles, only on the Cult tiles.

And I might still had jumped on this auction if not for these 2 things:
1. Watermark missing
2. Rivet II not included

The King was also a mini-expansion - without watermark.

I expect the seller is a member here who is planning on signing all (12 x 15 = ...) 180 River 2 tiles and sending them to me for inclusion in the KJW landscape. It's going to be very rivery indeed.

So if it's being sold:

a) without the box
b) without the River II
c) without watermarks on the King tiles

Then we can assume that it is not the large expansion King, Count and Cult, but instead the three individual mini-expansions of the Count, the King and Robber Baron and the Cult being put together and packaged as King, Count and Cult. So the differences are already mentioned: no River II and no watermarks on some tiles.

Then again... Seller's feedback is thru the roof. Over 10k and all of them positive. No negative or neutral.

I have to admit I was/am confused by all of it.  Who knows what's going on.  There are still ZERO bids as of this moment with three hours to go. 

EDIT: auction ended with no bids. 

I just realized the main page has an eBay items listing - how does one add to that listing?  Perhaps I should have done that rather than just post in this forum?

I am the one that bought the item at $49.99.  When I received it it was in 2 german edition boxes of the expansion.  The tiles were all new unpunched and the king tiles had the water marks on them.

Nice to see a fellow multiple-of-the-same-expansion buyer. ;)
