In time for Christmas?

Forgive me if this has already been covered, but I couldn't see it anywhere.

I have put my order in for the next printing of the Enhanced Edition.  I want to give it to my son for Christmas. Does anyone know if the next print run will make it in time? Just wondering (and keeping my fingers crossed). 

Answered here, and the answer is no, sadly.

Kind of a shame... I had a "big spill" (glass of water knocked over the box) and need some decks replaced, but I'll wait until they are re-stocked.

@waedens, are you in the US?

I have an unopened copy of Enhanced Edition that I can get to you if you want to make sure you have it in time for Christmas for your son. You could just then send me the one from GTG when you get it. 

Full disclosure though, I know there were some copies of EE that had some issues with cards not being cut the right size and I have no way of knowing if this was one of those. >Games has, from what I hear, been very good about replacing any defects though. 

I'm not sure if the new print run has addressed the issue, but I imagine the printer was made aware and will probably watch out for that. So your odds for avoiding the issue might be slightly improved with the new run. 

In any case, let me know if you are interested and we can discuss the logistics.

That is a very nice offer. I will be fine if they ship in December. I just need to make sure that it will as I have them shipping it to the Grandparents house. If it doesn’t actually ship until mid-January we won’t be there to get it…

OK. Well, offers stands in case anything comes up. 

Hold the phone, I might like to take that offer, Jagarciao. I'm in the US, and I'd really like to get a copy of EE for my nephews for Christmas, and it would have to be on Christmas since they live overseas. Give me a few more minutes and I can give you an answer.

OK. Well, since I extended the offer to waedens first and then confirmed that the offer still stood, I'd just like to get confirmation that he won't be needing it after all and then it's all yours evandan55. 

Okay great, I'm set and fully capable of paying for it, so I guess we can just wait for Waedens though.

I believe that I read Evandan55 needs to ship it overseas so he is on a tighter timeline than me so I will let him have it. Merry Christmas!

Are you sure there isn't a retail store where you can buy it?

I'd be pretty surprised if Gamerz (Greenwood, IN – south side of Indy) didn't have it in stock – and probably other stores in Indy, too.

Whoah. Amazon.com is selling Enhanced Edition for ABOVE retail price – $43.99

Ah, I see. It's being listed at Amazon.com, but it's actually a different company selling it.

 

Bwah. Other people are selling it for even more!

These prices are kind of ridiculously high.

 

I think that one is expensive is because it includes the promo cards, mini expansions and oversized villians + HP Trackers. (40+20+20+10+5 + 5 + 5) = $105 + Priceless

Edit: They do include all but rook wraith and young legacy and apparently 2 art prints

 

The following promos are free!

  1. Cosmic Omnitron Villain Promo Card
  2. Ra - Horus of Two Horizons Promo Card
  3. Redeemer Fanatic Promo Card
  4. Vengeful Baron Blade Villain Promo Card
  5. 1 random Enhanced Edition Art Print
  6. 1 random Infernal Relics Art Print

OK evandan55, pm me and we can work out the details. I'm not looking to make money off this and I'll probably be getting another EE in the future to run some crazy time-travel scenario games with the different versions of the heroes side by side once all the promo cards come out... so you can either buy this copy off me straight out or get me one when they are available once again. 

@arenson9: I'd check other retail stores, but I'm stuck in Bowling Green, KY for the next week, and the ONE gaming store here in town certainly does not have the game, sadly. Online purchase would be my only option.

And even after, I won't be in Indiana for any reason until Gen Con, most likely.

@Jagarciao: I'll fire off a PM in just a minute, and we can work out payment details.

I expect to be driving through Bowling Green on Dec 20th. Not sure how happy my spouse would be if I made her stop in order to drop off a copy of EE. We'll be heading from Indianapolis to Atlanta.

Well, no worries. I'll have escaped to Louisville at least a week before that.

Gotta get home in time to see the Hobbit at midnight!

Louisville is more than half way to Indy … and, of course, we'll be driving through Louisville as well.

 

Note the $22 shipping charge since it comes from a store in Europe. It also has a 2-3 week ship time. Not likely to get here (USA) for Christmas even if you payed all of that.
