I may love the postman, but I don't like international shipping charges right now. For €28.95, I'll pass...

I had to pay 18.95 Euros for the advent package, some tiles and meepls packs, to ship in Switzerland (luckily I live in one of Germany's neighboring countries).

Where do you live to have such expensive shipping costs for a single expansion?

Edit: Shipping costs for the Peasant revolts only would be 4.95 Euros for me.

About as far away from Europe as you can get: New Zealand. I believe somewhere in Algeria is where I’d pop out if I dug through the centre of the Earth from here. Still, shipping for three expansions and a map last month was barely more!

I checked, and looked what I found... In Spain we always talk about it but I never saw it on a map...

Interesting map, but it seems a bit off. I checked once when I lived in Christchurch (I'm in Auckland now) and it was basically perfectly aligned to Sardinia. I assume I am further south now, hence Algeria. May have to check my math.

I haven't been to Spain since 2009 and can't imagine I'll be back for a while yet. My more immediate European destination would be France, since I wrote an entire doctoral thesis on the country and haven't spent any considerable amount of time there.

i live in Mexico and shipping cost was 4.95 for 7 miniexpansions, for a complete expansion shipping cost es something like 40 euros the only reason i would buy expansions on cundco is if i had a store or something
