Coup (Kickstarter and international shipping)

    There are a lot of boardgames on Kickstarter but recently the international shipping has gone through the roof. Quite a few projects now have bundles where you get much reduced shipping if you buy 6 or 10 of the product.

    For example I'm interested in Coup at the moment. This is a card game somewhat similar to Bluff or Liars Dice in that you have two roles and during your turn you take actions based on claiming to have the role that allows that action whether you have it or not. The other players can either let you or call your bluff.

    Here's the prices:
    Coup w. American Shipping - $15
    Coup w. Global Shipping - $29
    Six copies Coup w. Global Shipping - $18.50 per copy
    Ten copies Coup w. Global Shipping - $16 per copy

    I'm proposing some sort of Kickstarter Club where people can let me know they want a copy by replying here. I will order and take all the (very small in my opinion) risk that the project will fail. Ideally I will meet you somewhere in Dublin and the game and cash will change hands at the same time. Payment would be one sixth or one tenth of what my credit card gets charged in € when the charge goes through (rounded up to the nearest 50 cent).

    If there is a situation where someone wants me to send the game to them somewhere outside Dublin then I would want payment in advance and the cost would include the actual costs in postage, packaging and payment processing.

    Hopefully this is not considered advertising or selling. I don't believe it is.

    Is anyone interested in this or like the idea but not for this particular game?
