lovemywhirlygirls Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Interested in buying this game and it's extention pack. What's your favorite resource? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elbac Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Do you mean for purchasing it? Or for game play? I think we bought ours off of Amazon. There isn't anywhere close to home we could purchase it easily, and they were the cheapest, plus free shipping. However, if IIRC, the price at the time fluctuated quite often. As for game play, this link off of their site is pretty cool. http://www.profeasy.com/Settlers_Boardgame/index.html?mode=3 I had forgotten that I had it until I was cleaning out my bookmarks today. :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KristineinKS Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 (edited) This has been on my BGG wishlist for awhile (I believe it's somewhat similar to Carcassone, which we love!), so while I don't have any suggestions, I can recommend checking out the site to see what the favorite expansions are: Board Game Geek: The Settlers of Catan. P.S. I think I misread the question, though even if you weren't looking for info on the expansions, do check out BGG - you'll find rule variations, where to buy it & all kinds of other info!

readwithem Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 http://www.fairplaygames.com/games.asp They have great prices and many of the Catan products qualify for discounted shipping :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MamaT Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 We have a place in the middle of our mall that sells games. That's where we bought ours. We love this game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovemywhirlygirls Posted March 27, 2009 Author Share Posted March 27, 2009 Thanks, All! I'm definitely going to try the local mall to check avails and pricing and hopefully avoid shipping. Will then check an online resource. Can't wait! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unicorn. Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Don't know if this will help you or not, but our local Hastings carries it. hth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gardening momma Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 We got ours from www.funagaingames.com. This was a few years ago. It was $23 (suggested retail was $38), plus about $7 for shipping. We bought several of the Settlers games & extensions at once to save on shipping. Looking at the site now, it looks like Settlers is now $33.60, with a sugg. retail price of $42. Oh, goodness. Going to that site, I see there's a lot of new Catan games. Yay. We have Settlers, Cities & Knights and Seafarers, and the 5-6 player expansions for each. Haven't been interested in the card game, Starfarers, or Starship, but some of these newer ones look up our alley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BethInNH Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Thanks for the link! We've got the game, and haven't played yet, but that site made it so easy to learn the rules! I think we'll dust off our game this afternoon and give it a go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Country Mouse Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 I got ours on amazon.com when it was $19.99. I got a book along with it and shipping was free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KristineinKS Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 (edited) Perusing BGG again, I came across a link to this article (recently published in Wired magazine) about Settlers of Catan - Monopoly Killer: Perfect German Board Game Redefines Genre (and board games in general) - it's pretty interesting!

Thanks for the link. Good article. The article had a link to www.playcatan.com. I don't think I've been there before. We'll have to try it out. Dh and I also play a computer version of Seafarers--I don't remember where we got it, but it was a free download. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
