He's offering backdoor busters.

Well, I am not going to get up early to wait in line for that.

Tantive IV $49.99 Coolstuff.

Power Grid has its share of loathers on F:AT, but y'all can sod off. (Apologies, November 30 is "pretend to be British" day in the US.) The Deluxe version is available on CSI today for only $37.99. That's darn cheap.

All of my local 'trash pals love Power Grid, so we have no trouble getting it to the table. In fact, my 2015 New Year's resolution is to play each expansion map at least once.

Edit: Doh, accidentally deleted my past deal. Pathfinder Skull and Shackles Base Set is still available for $24.99 on CSI. Plus the Expedition re-release (aka Wildlife Adventure redux) is only $19.99.

Ok, another deal: Titanfall is only $4.99 on Origin right now.

For the Robinson Crusoe fan, Portal has a promo bundle on sale, it amounts to free shipping plus a few bucks.

Beast cards, the Beach Expansion, Two new scenarios, wood pieces to replace the wooden cubes and stickers.

That's a good deal on promos.

Also, Titanfall is my one of my top three games this year, so that's worth doing.

Just a reflection on a recent deal:

For the first time ever, I participated in the FFG Winter Sale because they had one thing I wanted (City of Thieves expansion) and one thing I was kind of boggled at it even being in the sale (Gears of War.) The expansion was $10. Easy sale. I went for one of the "damaged" copies of Gears for $20. Mine arrived over the weekend while I was out of town. The Gears box has the slightest crease in the top and the very tips of two corners are scuffed. That's it. A $70 game in essentially standard retail condition for $20. Turns out it's a pretty cool game, too, even as unenamored of co-ops as I currently am. Crazy.
