So is there a specific quantity that y'all have or is it scalable? Trying to see how quickly I need to pull the trigger while waiting for friends to see if they want in on my order.

nathantbakerThe max you can buy per transaction is 5 units which is $13.13 shipping and total of $93.08 after taxes which is about $18.6/unit. I believe that's the cheapest you can get them if you're splitting with 4 others.
@commadelimited, you can see the ship date at the bottom of the description (June 17th) but the date can change depending on the vendor, shipment problems, etc etc.

organicjelloThat's the thing about Massdrop and shipping. I don't often find deals + shipping that are too good to be true. I participated in the Roll for the Galaxy drop and I'm happy with it. However, with Splendor taking another THREE WEEKS to ship to me, there's no benefit whatsoever if I"m purchasing this game solo to do it at Massdrop.
On this one, it seems obvious that $26 and 3-5 weeks of waiting for shipment is not a good deal when I can spend $29 at Amazon and get the game TOMORROW.

bonesetterWell, I guess it depends on how you look at it. $3 is around 10% off, which, to some people, is a significant amount (and then you have MSRP local game stores...). Also, if you absolutely need to play the board game within a week, then Amazon is definitely the way to go, but if you buy something off Massdrop, it'll arrive in a month and maybe you're having a bad day, and the package will cheer you up. It's all about perspective I guess :P

bonesetterIt's better if you can gang up with friends. I purchased 4 copies with coworkers and the total for each game (including shipping) will be $18.99. That's more than $10 off Amazon's price.

bonesetterI totally agree; seems this has been the trend on Massdrop lately, unfortunately. Save 5-10% over "average market price", wait a month to get the product. This game is another great example: it's under 30 on Amazon, and there have been numerous times it's been under 26.
Great products, not super competitive pricing (usually).
