I have joined the dark side.

Have made a few purchases recently, and also hosted Udo when he was here, and got some things from him.

The insert is from Broken Token before any one asks.

I thought about getting a Broken Token organiser. The problem is that the shipping to the UK is expensive. What's it like?

Kudos on joining the dark side!
Look to the north. Keep looking. There's nothing coming from the south.

Thanks Postie! Thanks Cundco!

(I've recently admitted to myself that I only post about a quarter of Carcassonne things I receive on this thread. Mostly because I'm on a bit of a Carcassonne spree at the moment, and posting everything the postman delivers might make me realise. I think I've made about three Cundco orders in as many weeks)

(It's also partly because I'm too lazy to take photos most of the time, and, as Decar is always quick to remind me, without photos, it didn't happen!)

(I'm still lying, it's about three orders in the last week alone)

Well my tunnels arrived. Not in the usual way though, after my girlfriend learned my package would never arrive. She bought one from a dealer for a reasonable price. So well..I guess im pretty lucky:) will post a picture as proof soon

Good haul Andrew!!

I also ordered a Carc insert / organizer that I hope will arrive soon.

Added congrats for Viticulture. It's a recent favourite in our home!

Wanna play Carc? Can we add just one more expansion?

I am counting them as in my Carc 2.0 collection, do we know for sure which artist illustrated these tiles?
Nothing on the instruction sheet?

No, just checked.
Toshihiko Ishibashi as per Cundco web shop.

Umm, yeah, I still live.  I recently picked up the Carc 2 base game set and then went and ordered the first 2 expansions (C2) and the Broken Token Insert.  After assembling it I put the expansions in the box with the whole hand painted Phantoms thing I did ages ago.  I stuck the Traders tokens and the phantoms in a baggie and I put them in a 6 tile big compartment in the insert, leaving room for other expansions when they get reprinted.  Will take a photo later

There are some on BGG for $$$ - The shop I ordered from, gave a copy with every purchase of the game.  It looks like the German Edition (there are apparently too), from Essen.  It says 'Messe' not 'The Messe'.  You could ask if you can order the card separately?
That's what is out of stock. The company sells the expansion separately, just not currently. They'll get it back in, though. They have all the other expansion cards available.

@Whaleyland - They're back in stock

Thanks Decar. I heard they were back, but I have to somehow justify spending €10 on one card since purchases must be a minimum of €10. Such a pain.

I ordered 2 sets of the 5 promos the other week to make it 10€.  Totor66 just started a thread, he's after 2 of them - perhaps you can work together?

Unlikely since I'm in New Zealand and shipping out of here is really expensive, even just for an envelope. I'm thinking of ordering the five promos, the Messe Essen, and the Catan board and selling the entire set on the local ebay wannabe site. That would be retail €8.00 plus shipping. I am hoping that they re-release the higher-quality military counter, though, as I'd buy that in a heartbeat.

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