    Hi All,
    any suggestions to tracking down games other than Amazon?

    Trying to get Race for the Galaxy and Castle Ittker for a decent price. The sellers on amazon have it priced ok but shipping is a mental price.

    Seems to be plenty of stories of bootleg games from Amazon too, though Ive never had the problem.

    Defnitely boardgameprices as above, usually I'll just google" Buy gamename UK" and find one of the usual UK stores stocking it.
