Thanks again for joining this drop! With your help we were able to make it successful for the community. We've just submitted the group's order with the vendor for the Massdrop Gateway Game Bundle and they are working hard to prepare it for shipment.
As soon as the group's order is ready at the vendor's location, they will send the bulk shipment to our warehouse in New Jersey where our warehouse team will break it up into individual orders and ship them directly to you! The current estimated ship date from our warehouse is 7/7.
Rest assured that we we will provide you all with updated information regarding the status of your order throughout the process. You can expect an update from us by the end of the day Pacific Time on 7/3.

Meh. Okay deal, but not that great. $64 with shipping.
Amazon Prime can get me Takenoko & Jaipur delivered for $56. So I'm paying $8 for Forbidden Island. Only a 50% reduction for the one game. Plus I'd get it all in 2 days, instead a month and a half.
I'd have to really want all 3 games, specifically. This wouldn't make a good impulse buy.

Jaipur is great, Takenoko is really cute but gets stale after a few games, but I think Forgbidden Island sucks. It's way too simple to the point that it feels like you know what move you should make every turn. If you have a local gaming store I recommend playing demo copies in store and buying them there to support the service. If you don't have a local game store with demo copies, I recommend picking games individually from CSI.

I have Forbidden Island and have played the rest, they are all great games for beginners and veterans alike. I strongly recommend getting them, either here or elsewhere.

The total for the bundle comes out to $62.97 on CSI and is $37.03 away from free shipping. Alternatively, on Miniature Market the total is $74.61 with their flat rate shipping.
With the lowest price on Massdrop, the total cost would be $63.49, shipping included.

This a drop I would get into, were it not for the shipping cost to Canada. There is probably not much you can do, but all these deals are killed by those shipping rates.

apertotesYeah, for some reason, I feel like $10 domestic shipping is a bit steep. There's not a reason why they don't have an agreement with a major shipper or distributor chain.

Under Takenoko: >The first to complete them is the winner.
Uh, no. The person who had the most points by the end of the last turn, wins.
Please read the rules, I know you guys opened the games.
