Title: How Much Is A Copy Of Expansion 5 For The Old Artwork Worth?
Post by: InTheDark on December 12, 2017, 04:08:11 AM
A few years ago I got my first ever Carcassonne for Christmas  :D. It is the base game in the new artwork. So I played it with my family and we really enjoyed so I decided to go down to my local Mind Games(which has now shutdown :( :'() and buy an expansion. Little did I know the expansion I bought was in the old art (at this point I didn't even know there is 2 art styles). When I got home I was annoyed at the fact I spent money on an expansion that didn't even match >:(. I didn't like the fact the tiles don't match so I have only used a couple of times.

So my question is how much is a copy of Abbey and Mayor in the old art that I have only used a couple of times worth in USD?

Thanks For Your Help!:)

Note: Mind Games is a Australian Board Game Shop Chain.

You can still find new copies of this fairly easily in Spain/Portugal (e.g. here (https://www.planetongames.com/gb/carcassonne-la-abadia-y-el-alcalde-p-1519.html?search_query=carcassonne&results=31)) selling for about €16. So that's about how much it's worth new. It's not a rare collector's item yet.

From Ebay sold prices in the US, it appears to sell for around $35 new and less than $22 used.  As it becomes rarer, it may be worth more.

I was hoping it might be going for more because I wanted to use the funds to but the new big box. But thanks for your help anyway!
