    Hmm, tempting. Still wanting Maracaibo a bit more i think. (Or spend less and grab wingspan)

      As a response to this comment I literally just moved the price of Maracaibo down to $109.95 and the free shipping code of 'STAYHOME' still works.

      https://gamesbandit.com.au/products/maracaibo-board-game?_po…

      While this isn't as a big of a slash to the price as Tapestry, I'm confident it would be the cheapest price in Australia. I have only 3 on hand.

      • kulprit on 28/04/2020 - 15:37

        Damn now its definitely tempting. Thanks :)

        Damn OzBargain and impulse buys. Hadn't looked at either title and now looking intriguing gauging by gameplay and reviews. Any further discount for buying both games? I really shouldn't, though…

          They're both beautiful games and awesome for any collection.

          If you want both I can do $199.95 (including shipping).

          Yes! I didn't even know that there was a 2nd Edition Reprint with the adjustments. I think you'll find Australia was so far back in getting them from the Europe release that we only got 2nd Editions!

          I can 100% confirm these copies are 2nd Editions with the marking on the back next to the barcode. I helpful Ozbaringer known as @Nanonova pointed this out to me :D

      Hi Mr Brown, thanks for reaching out. With Everdell we unfortunately bought into that stock when the AUD dollar had crashed, I'm not in a position to lower the price.

      However - OzGameShop appears to have it reasonably priced - https://www.ozgameshop.com/strategy-board-games/everdell-boa…

          Carcassonne Base Game!

          https://gamesbandit.com.au/products/carcassonne?_pos=3&_sid=…

          It's one of those games that you can pick up, play and enjoy right off the bat. While the game seems straight forward, it can be quite perplexing as each player competes for the same area to score points. Perfect for 2 players all the way up to 5. The good thing is if you enjoy it enough there are more expansions down the track but are not require by any means. I play the base game with my partner all the time.

          I have 2 copies on hand which I just lowered the price down to 54.95 - I'm pretty sure that's the cheapest in Aus :) If you want to go through with your purchase make sure to use 'STAYHOME' for free shipping :)

          Here's is a really quick guide to the game:

            @SpotTheOzzie: Ordered this game from you on the strength of your recommendation (and service to Ozbargain) and am loving it. As a family we're hooked. Now I'm obsessing about the expansion packs. Do you sell them and which one would you recommend first please?

            • AssociatedSpotTheOzzie @ Games Bandit on 05/05/2020 - 14:52

              @dtoovey: Hi Dtoovey, really glad to hear that! We only recommend the best and you were one of the fortunate ones that got in while I still had stock. I have a flood of them coming in at the end of May to fulfil all the other orders that came along.

              We do sell the expansions on the below link:

              https://gamesbandit.com.au/search?page=1&q=carcassonne

              Expansions will add tiles, but sometimes completely new rules to a game pending the expansion.

              The next ones I have in stock and top 3 I would recommend are:

              Expansion 5: Abbey & Mayor - The abbey tiles help to complete adjacent features while the mayor pieces are added to cities, with their strength being determined by the number of pennants in the city. Barns and wagons also increase the tactical options.

              Expansion 4: The Tower - Instead of placing a meeple on their turn, the player can add a tower section to a tile with space for a tower. Towers give the player the ability to capture the meeples of other players that are nearby. This denies the opponent the ability to score with that meeple, and also means that a ransom must be paid in order to have the meeple freed. It can turn the game into quite the bloodbath, some people will absolutely hate this expansion for that reason.

              Expansion 5: Count, King & Robber - Adds a lot more strategy, however I've read a handful of reviews where people felt it adds a little to more complexity but I don't believe this is the case when you get some games under your belt. Best of read the expansion rules here to see if it's something your circle of players - https://images-cdn.zmangames.com/us-east-1/filer_public/5b/f…

              I don't really think there are many bad expansions to be honest. The only one I find is a bit ridiculous is the one known as 'the catapult', where you literally shoot onto the playing board to knock meeples out. Some people enjoy this..but I feel like you're mixing an element of the game that doesn't suit.

              And we still have the 'STAYHOME' free shipping activated :)

              Edit* I would totally recommend Exp 1 and 2 as must haves as well but at the moment they are australia wide out of stock. We have ordered 40 copies each but we don't have a definite date.

              • kulprit on 05/05/2020 - 15:55

                @SpotTheOzzie: I'd honestly only recommend expansions 1 and 2. They really do improve the game and you probably won't play without them once you purchase.

                But they also aren't required straight, at least a few months of games before you feel the itch for more.

  • DevGuy on 28/04/2020 - 16:28

    Dayam Spirit Island used to be $80 new on eBay, gone up a lot.. I should have bought back then instead of uhming and ahhing over the Jagged Alliance kickstarter :|

    • AssociatedSpotTheOzzie @ Games Bandit on 28/04/2020 - 16:34

      That's rough. I'm not familiar with the historical costings of that particular title but I know as a whole the Australian wholesaler turned around and upped the price on every single item plus there's some sort of large backlog for printing games in China as well. I can't even buy buy the game myself anywhere near $80 at the wholesaler / store level :(

      The only reason we've broken Tapestry lowest record pricing is the stock was purchased prior COVID-19 and it's in large excess.

      I hope things go back down to normal for stores and retailers.

      That does seem like a pricing error. I also just noticed a customer bought it for that price last week - I'm going to give them a refund of $25 directly back to their card.

      I have lowered it to $54.95. You can buy it for $36.99 (plus shipping) which would be cheaper from Blacktown GameTraders. This would also be a good deed as it would support a brick and mortar store who would be struggling.

      Damn, I don't have Architects on hand but apparently I have a restock box coming next week (this could get pushed out with COVID shenanigans). If you wanted to wait I could do it for $79.95 (inc postage).

      Alternatively it looks like GamesMen have it for $75 + postage so maybe a little more expensive but at least you get it quicker :D https://www.gamesmen.com.au/architects-of-the-west-kingdoms-…

          Yea!

          It's called Ticket To Ride: First Journey.

          There's a version for the original (USA) and Europe:

          https://gamesbandit.com.au/products/ticket-to-ride-first-jou…

          https://gamesbandit.com.au/products/ticket-to-ride-europe-fi…

          The game is suitable for Ages 6 and up. The most common customer of these items is primary school teachers. Kids seem to really love it.

          I found a review on BoardGameGeek:

          "Played with my kids (9 and 6) and we enjoyed it. It was a close first game with all three of us having five completed tickets before my daughter earned her sixth.

          I'm not 100% sure but it seems that the randomness is mitigated somewhat by a higher volume of wild cards; none of us had any trouble claiming routes fairly often (generally one or two turns of drawing cards resulted in a turn or two of claiming routes). There are a lot of one- and two-train routes, and the longest route (going by memory) is only four (or maybe five).

          I also really like the language-independence for younger kids by marking each city with a big, easy to spot picture that (usually) relates to the city in some way (a baseball for Chicago, for example).

          Overall we really enjoy this version. It's obviously not intended for a group of seasoned adult gamers, but it's still fun for a family session, and it really does a good job of putting younger players on an even footing with adults."

    What would you recommend for someone who would like to get into board games but hasn't played anything outside of the standard supermarket range (Monopoly, Cluedo, etc)?
    I'm thinking something that you could have a few people over for a drink and finish in the 1-2.5 hour range and isn't overly complicated.

      • AssociatedSpotTheOzzie @ Games Bandit on 28/04/2020 - 17:44

        I have to agree with Vash!

        Settlers of Catan is a classic and still to this day is considered one of the best games. They even have an annual 'World Championship' of the best players.

        If you're looking for more a super casual, drinking game with many people (after the COVID restrictions lift up) I would recommend Secret Hitler.

        It's not as big in Australia, and the only reason I got hooked was when I went to a World Championship in Minnesota and the guys were playing it after the tournament.

        Every group I've introduced it to it's by far their favourite game, it's something that a group of people can play for like hour(s) and never get bored of as it's a social deduction game. Best played with 9-10 players and quick to learn.

        https://gamesbandit.com.au/products/secret-hitler?_pos=1&_si…

        I'm 99% sure we have the best price ($53.95 use the same code above for free shipping), we basically bought it in huuuggeee bulk since we thought it might blow up here :)

        • vash5 on 28/04/2020 - 17:56

          Thanks for the great tip on Secret Hitler. I will check out the reviews.

          Just curious, I recently purchased Scythe (3 weeks ago). Given the nature of the game (I still haven't had a chance to play it with with friends due to C19) would you still suggest to get Tapestry as well? From the quick research I have done, both games are similar in nature and it sounds like getting Secret Hitler would be a better choice to add to my collection.

          • AssociatedSpotTheOzzie @ Games Bandit on 28/04/2020 - 18:27

            @vash5: I played both really recently so they're quite fresh.

            I feel like Scythe and Tapestry are in the same ball park with similar scoring mechanics but still somewhat different. I can't quite put in words why I feel one would be better than the other, they just feel different. I also feel Tapestry is more appealing to newer players but still quite complex to pick up.

            If you went the route of Secret Hitler it's light years different. Smosh did a really good video on Secret Hitler - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XGhtQZg_peo

            @vash5: Give Scythe a go solo. The Automa isn't difficult to learn and it's still a very fun game solo. It will also make it easier to teach when you can get it to the table. I personally prefer Scythe to Tapestry, but I also have a lot more play throughs of Scythe. I've only been through Tapestry twice and I just felt like I didn't focus enough on one path to victory.

          I'd also recommend ticket to ride. We were similar to haggertm and found TTR the easiest and best fun to play with friends over. It's our "go to" game for dinner/drinks with friends who aren't big gamers.

            @67logic: +1 for TTR suggestion

            • AssociatedSpotTheOzzie @ Games Bandit on 28/04/2020 - 18:22

              @vash5: +1 for TTR as well. That game starts to innocently but once people realise you need to block other players it goes completely A-Wall :P It's great!

              • haggertm on 28/04/2020 - 23:08

                @SpotTheOzzie: There are a few different ticket to ride games. Are they all basically the same but based in a different country?

                • AssociatedSpotTheOzzie @ Games Bandit on 29/04/2020 - 11:16

                  @haggertm: Hey HaggerTM.

                  Generally speaking yes. Some are merely expansions where you would need the original. Unfortunately I have sold out of TOR across all categories except for the newly released Japan and Italy which is just an expansion (you would need the base game):

                  https://gamesbandit.com.au/products/ticket-to-ride-japan-ita…

                  Another game I would highly suggest is Carcassonne base game or Codewords [I prefer the XXL version] (people who thrive in English class love this game) :)

                  I can potentially lower the price of Codewords for you if you're interested as a first game :)

                      @kulprit: I'd be willing to drop it to $66.95 (free postage) if you're interested :)

                    @SpotTheOzzie: Sounds like a game that my wife would be better than me at… so its a hard pass on that one haha. I am looking at Secret Hitler though, that looks more up my alley.

            @67logic: I like TTR, but I feel like it's too long. We get TTR: New York to the table a lot more often than the full length games. I feel like one or two run throughs of that is enough TTR for our group usually.

  • prophet on 28/04/2020 - 17:48

    Do you have Dominion 2nd edition or Big Box 2nd edition? And do you have Burgle Bros? If not, will you be getting stock anytime soon?

      The AU Wholesaler is getting the 2nd Edition delivered on the 13th May, so give or take 1-2 weeks before the stores get them. The Big Box II does not have an ETA just the status that they have ordered them.

      Do you want to flick me a reminder via pm or facebook.com/GamesBandit and I can follow up on this.

    Any discounting possible on Viticulture?

    • AssociatedSpotTheOzzie @ Games Bandit on 28/04/2020 - 18:15

      Hey Venger0,

      I am getting more Viticulture Essential Edition in Mid May. If you feel okay waiting the best price I can offer is $89.95 and I will honour the free shipping for a product that ships later.

      • [Deactivated] on 28/04/2020 - 18:24

        I’d be for a copy at that price with free shipping. Will you be getting the Tuscany expansion too?

        • AssociatedSpotTheOzzie @ Games Bandit on 28/04/2020 - 20:28

          Sweet. Shoot me a message on Facebook.com/GamesBandit with your email address and I can shoot it through.

          Tuscany expansion I am not so sure on, I do have Moor Visitors Expansion and Vicinity From the Rhine Valley coming in later next week if that would also interest you?

      Thanks Blacklles. Totally keen to help you out with this one but the wholesaler has put a new date for more arriving on the 13th May, to get that batch to stores would take 1-2 weeks after. I'm offering it for $32.95 but could lower it down to $29.95 but unfortunately mate I don't have a concrete date on this next batch arriving :( Totally understand you may just want to get the goodie now as opposed to later :)

    Have seen it cheaper.

      Sorry mate I sold out of Ticket to Ride about an hour ago and the website inventory is lagging slightly behind. I've never had this issue :( Hoping to get it fixed by tonight.

      I don't believe I'll get any more copies for another month - sorry :(

    Hey Rep, any chance of a deal for Scythe and expansions? Thanks in advance

    • AssociatedSpotTheOzzie @ Games Bandit on 28/04/2020 - 20:36

      Scythe was one of the lines that took a huge hit recently. I don't have a lot of wriggle room here.

      I have now dropped down to 46.95 for the next 48 hours.

      https://gamesbandit.com.au/products/scythe-realistic-resourc…

      If there's any specific you wanted to price gauge let me know but other than the tokens I don't think I'm in a position to move down.

    There's a handful of orders that are within 1 hour drive. We are going to deliver those ones now. For the ones outside of our area we will start packing this week and the courier will do a pick up on Monday or Tuesday.

      Hey Freefall101!

      Thank for the praise :)

      If you're a hardcore game I would strongly recommend 7 Wonders Duel! It's a very cut throat head to head game that's a spin-off of the original 7 Wonders.

      https://gamesbandit.com.au/products/7-wonders-duel?_pos=1&_s…

      I just ran out, but I am getting more stock in May.

      If you're looking something a little more laid back definitely Carcassonne Base Game!

      I wrote about it above to another customer but I'll C+P it here as well as I just wrote the response :)

      "Carcassonne Base Game!

      https://gamesbandit.com.au/products/carcassonne?_pos=3&_sid=…

      It's one of those games that you can pick up, play and enjoy right off the bat. While the game seems straight forward, it can be quite perplexing as each player competes for the same area to score points. Perfect for 2 players all the way up to 5. The good thing is if you enjoy it enough there are more expansions down the track but are not require by any means. I play the base game with my partner all the time.

      I have 2 copies on hand which I just lowered the price down to 54.95 - I'm pretty sure that's the cheapest in Aus :) If you want to go through with your purchase make sure to use 'STAYHOME' for free shipping :)

      Here's is a really quick guide to the game:

        Seven Wonders Duel is a great game. I play it with my almost 11 year old.

        There are so many different strategies to winning and different combos. Half the cards are face up so you can try to plan, but opponent can pull a double move sometimes to take away your plan to take or deny them a card.

        My son beat me once by reviving a dead card (last science he needed) that I didn’t notice he could do with a yet to be built wonder when I thought I had the win sewn up.

        Great game.
