Well, they only told me to put 1€ in an envelope for each set of 12 blank tiles I wanted. Didn't mention any shipping costs...

Then you'll probably get it for free. Sounds like a good deal! Let us know when you get the tiles.

Can you give me an email address or web-form to fill out for ordering blank hexes. I live in the UK and I don't know if they will ship them to me for only a Euro since I am in that vague, sort-of-Europe, but sort-of-Rio-Grande-Game territory. Thanks!

Here's a copy of the email sent by HiG: ******************************************************** Please send us a letter with your address and request and just put 1€ per tableau (á 12 blank tiles) into the letter. Just keep attention that no coins are loose in the envelope, but just fix them with a strip. Our address is:
Hans im Glück Verlag Birnauer Str. 15 D - 80809 München Deutschland
*********************************************************
Write them a letter with the due money amount and your adress and it should be a piece of cake...
Greetings

Hey koolkat, where are you located in Europe (country-wise) and how long did it take you to receive your tiles from HiG? I am in the UK and will be ordering 5 sets this or next week and am just curious. Cheers!

nice... wonder where in Australia I'm going to get euros?? I think I might have a few in my coin collection, or my sister might have a few left from her trip to Germany... I hope they deliver to Australia... EDIT: I found 7 euros in my coin collection... 84 tiles should be enough for most expansions that I will make...

They don't deliver outside Europe, and it's a maximum of 5 sheets per person. Yeah, it sucks, I know.

Well, you could always buy small expansions like Rivers 2 and CS&C and use those instead to make your tiles.

If you want a large quantity of blank tiles, you could always try the link Joff mentioned in this post. Edit: You could always buy second hand tiles. I just checked ebay Australia and there's a lot of the base set going for A$11.50 only, which I think is a bargain.

As an answer to my own question, a set of tiles takes roughly four days to arrive to the U.K. after the request has been sent. The turn-over time is amazing, so I assume most of the rest of Europe is as good.

At my school, there is a German exchange happening this year (I can't go, though I want to), so I might give one of my friends some money and get them to buy C,K&C, and then use the tiles from the mini expansions...
