Title: Seperate Celebration expansion
Post by: Carcatronn on August 27, 2011, 02:29:38 am
I knew they were available as spare parts, but I thought maybe I missed something.  I wonder if the festival tiles are also available.
You know, I would start selling the festival tiles separate if I knew there were enough people wanting to buy them.  Is there a big interest?

I think there would be a decent interest for the Celebration tiles. I mean, what I think would actually be the best solution is make a Celebration / School expansion, especially since School sounds like it will be very few (perhaps one even) tiles. It could be something like the 10th Anniversary Expansion (instead of edition). I'd love it if a stand-alone of School sold in the US still benefited the Hans im Glück charity. Perhaps the entire 11-tile (or more) expansion could benefit the charity. Toss in Crop Circles, Tunnel, and Plague and you have a full-blown expansion!

Anyway, yes, I think there would be interest in just the 10 tiles. Perhaps in a small meeple-shaped box. That could be fun.

Here here!  I second that motion with a big {up

Split from School thread.

I should have a few packages from the charity project to distribute.  Of course the funds will still go towards the cause in Ghana.  The Celebration tiles would not, but  could I get assistance with a Tuckbox for this one? I know someone on the site did a great job in this department. :-)

It would be great if we could make this happen.  I'm sure there would be a number of people who would jump on the tuckbox thing.  Is there anyway you could get the other expansions?  Not that I want to throw water on it, but are you sure that you'll be able to sell it seperately?  Do you think you'd be able to get ahold of any of the others like Crop Circles, Tunnels, and Plague?  Do you think you'd be able to produce anything from our site?  The wheels are really turning...

On second thought, I think the Tuckbox would be better if available for download from here if someone wants it versus it being shipped with the tiles. I can definitely sell the Celebration tiles separate, but not approved for selling Tunnels, Plague, or Crop Circles yet.  The school expansion should be approved for donation only, but I will of course let everyone know once it is approved after the Essen fair.

The fan expansions is a grey area since not official and I am not authorized to sell them... However, I will be selling blank tiles in the near future, hopefully :-)

I ended up buying the 10th Anniversary Edition (because I have OCD), so I don't need Celebration separately, but I am interested in Crop Circles and School if you're ever able to get your hands on them.

well the Anniversary edition is definitely worth getting since you get the awesome Meeple Scoreboard and translucent meeples (as if you didn't have enough already lol)

I also bought all 6 colors of the Phantom expansion, so I probably have more translucent meeples than opaque....

One idea I had was to sell our expansions as sticker sheets in sets of two.  There are plenty of fanspansions we have that can be just two tiles.  The idea being to sell them for use with the two tiles for Creativity.  Then, if you end up selling sheets of 12, the possibilities are numerous. 

There is also the matter of meeples.  Meeple Source has been good (much better since they finally got their stock in), but there are still many parts that are unavailable like dragons, counts, bridges, meeples from other versions like H&G.  Just thinking out loud.

these are great ideas CK! I will see what I can do in this department. :-)

So RGG again is restricting this for within the USA, but I most likely can sell spare parts to the UK if there is enough interested. Sorry for all the bad news lately, too much red tape.

That doesn't make any sense.  Jay won't sell them.  I bought some from him one time and he wouldn't do it again after that.  Not to mention that he charged me an arm and leg for them.  Crazy...

**UPDATE** I will have Meeple from H&G, Bridges, and more parts soon! Dragon and Count pieces will be available as magnets only. I will update the Shoppe post when they launch ;-)

This is good news indeed.  I use the one-arm-up meeples for the Missionary and Shepherds expansions.  Anything you can get will be great.  I just hope you are able to move them.

Wow...there are some nice items on your site.
I always thought you were in Germany, don't know why haha...

Shipping is almost 15 dollar. How will you ship the items, pack them?
Will they be well protected, or how? Box or bubblewrap enveloppe?

Will the stickers be included or do I need to add them to my cart somehow?

Hope you can answer my questions.

Thank you for your time...:)

Depends on what items you are purchasing and what country you are wanting them shipped to.  ;) we bubble wrap all items so they are well protected, even in the bubble wrap envelopes now just in case. If you buy boxed items or too many to fit in an envelope, then the item they will be bubble wrapped in a flat rate box.

The Meeple stickers are automatically added to your order if its $15.00 or more, but we limit only 1 per person.

Please PM me or click on the Contact Us website to provide me with more details to better assist. Thank you for your interest!
