Craig announced a thing!

FYI, when ordering I found that it was necessary to actually put a copy of the promos in to your cart. A discount would then show up when checking out.
Yeah Guise and AZ promos! Time to buy that second copy of Deck Building the Deck Building game.
<<<runs in circles for joy>>>
wonder if I order today if they will be here in time for my thanksgiving SoTM family game that we do at get togethers?
I'm excited other people are excited!
Also, PSA (provided my calculations are correct):
To save various EU/International people some trial, error and brainpower, you can apparently get up to 4 packs of the promo cards for the somewhat cheaper International Flat Rate @ 11$ (any more, and you have to pay for the Fed Ex Parcel rate which is 29.03$. Yikes!).
So if you buy 4 packs of promo cards (together with your friends or if you for some reason have 4 sets of the game) and pay International Flat Rate Postage, one set of cards is 3.46$, because one of the packs of promos is free as soon as you buy more than one (and that's about 86 cents per card). Bizarrely, that means that if you need 8 sets of promo cards, you'd actually be cheaper off buying them in two lots of 4.
Postage is weird.
(Edited to add: International Flat Rate only makes sense if you don't mind if Santa Guise doesn't actually show up for Christmas, what with the estimated delivery time being 4-6 weeks.)
Wooohooo! Nice sale and new promos! I'm taking advantage of this and already placed my order. Yay!
Those are some super-sweet promos. :)
I placed an order for the replacements decks for the promos themselves. I am a nut and buy replacement decks so I can have friends play promos of the same character. the craziest was the 3 legacy taking on iron legacy, we lost hard but legacy has a good time ha ha
The only thing I'd want is painted Broken City minis, but they're sold out so can't be added to the cart, so no order to add the promo cards to. There's no way to pre-order or wish list those to give GtG money and take advantage of the promos?
I think you can also just order the promos.
Yeah, I ordered the promos (well, three copies, I got friends to take care of) and nothing else, went through fine. (The cost of one set of the promos was deducted, so stands to reason if you just get one you will only pay for shipping and handling.)
I think I read that you get a pack for free with any purchase, but if you only want one set of the promo cards and nothing else, you'd have to pay the 0.95.
But if you buy two sets, you effectivly would only pay for one and get the other one free, so there really doesn't seem to be an awfully good reason not to buy two if the promo cards are all you want from the sale (unless they are in short supply or something).
Bummed out because I literally ordered Mr Chomps for Hanukkah a few days before they announced the sale. Paid full price and full price shipping. I emailed and messaged GTG, but got no reply. Last night guess what showed up on my door. I am more bummed out that I haven't got a response than by anything else.
I think only Paul is active at GtG currently as Christopher and Craig are at BGG con. Typically those emails are one that Craig gets. Hopefully they can work something out with you.
Same thing happened to me last year. I ordered a Mr. Chomps for my daughter for Hanukkah a few days before the Christmas sale began. It's unfortunate, but I can't really blame them for it.
Sorry about the lack of response! I am sure that those orders were shipped out right before Craig left for BGG Con, and that he has not had a chance to respond to emails since he left.
I know what's done is done, but any chance I can work something out to get the promo cards that I would have included in my order?
Edit: NVM I found what I was looking for.
just out of curisoity has anyone seen their promos yet?
I haven't and I ordered something the first day. The status is still at "payment received" on my order page.
