Oishiichan Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 Has anyone played this or even seen it anywhere? I want to buy this for my Father In Law but am having no luck finding anyone who will ship it the US or a store in the states that even sells it. http://www.thudgame.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Knorg Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 I had a look at the link in their site shop (which I'm guessing you've already checked out) & I'm surprised Amazon.co.uk won't ship it to the states. If Amazon have said no perhaps one of the current private marketplace sellers will? One of them at least has international shipping rates listed for toys. I've never had a problem with any amazon marketplace purchase. Given Amazon have a recommended minimum age of 4 years, I'm not too sure how long it will keep an adult entertained, especially as one of the reviewers reckons it's just a rip off of old King's Table... but I didn't really like the book Thud! much either. The watch/in-depth-dwarf-culture stuff is getting real tiresome. I guess for someone who liked it a lot more, that makes it a lot more appealing. Each to their own.

Oishiichan Posted January 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 It isn't for me, I prefer games like Mahjong, Go, Othello, etc. It is for my husbands father. I have tried to order it from about 20 different UK sites all say they wont ship that item to the US including the Amazon.UK site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Knorg Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 It seems like the best option then is to buy it and have it sent to yourself and then when you receive it, post it off to the US on your own. The post office sells all the necessary packaging, stamps and so on. I think there's a fairly slow option that's quite reasonably priced.

Leonhart29 Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Oh how I would love to get my hands on that one! I have one of the PS1 games and just about all the Disk World books, so if you do find a way to get it please let me know! An thanks forgiving me one more thing to lust after - I needed that.

Oishiichan Posted January 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Your welcome. However the only way I have found to get it to the states was to buy it from a UK sight as a gift for a friend residing there, then have them ship it to me. Apparently there is some issue with legalities which is why they can't ship to the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
