I've had a good search, and can't find this game for sale anywhere online, and know my FLGS won't have it (seems a very low print run game, right?).

Any clues where I can source it from? Or am I outta luck?

Check with clearclaw, he's been the source of contact for purchasing and distributing the game for John.

Best is to contact John Bohrer / Winsome Games directly at the e-mail John lists in his profile. They did reprint a small number of these based on demand. According to this post, they had a few copies as of the end of January.

I ordered a copy two weeks ago directly from Winsome and it came within three days of them receiving my money order.

edit: clarification

Wabash Cannonball is only available by direct order from John Bohrer at Winsome Games. He only sells to USA addresses and only accepts money orders for payment.

I did a brokerage run for a bunch of foreign buyers. I'm willing to do it again if John is also willing, but only if there's enough demand (it was rather a lot of work). So far only 4 or 5 people have popped up asking for a copy. I'd like a dozen or more before going through the exercise again. If you'd like to do a rabble rouse and gather orders...

Oh, okay.

I doubt I can find anyone beyond me who'd take a flyer on this, I'm afraid.

I am interested, so if you do another round, let me know. Otherwise, looks like it's one that'll pass me by.

You don't need locals, just eleven other geeks anywhere in the world. With a bit of forum posting and encouragement I doubt it would be a problem.

I am in so you need 10 more people. Geekmail me when you get the rest.

To clearclaw: i guess that you accept PayPal payments and you are willing to ship to Greece.

The last lot went to Canada, Russia, Finland, Switzerland, England, and Indonesia that I recall. A few of them have even posted session reports and other comments about their games. I really can't see that Greece would be any more difficult!

Oh, and for the guys that have been emailing me directly: It is very flattering, thankyou, and no offence, but I really don't want to have to recall who is interested or not and to track that manually. If you'd like a copy of Wabash Cannonball please post on this thread. That way I don't have to remember everyone and John gets to see how much market interest there is. Sound good?

I posted about your offer on the Finnish Board Game Society forums. After our session reports and post-game analysis there, I'm surprised if someone isn't interested.

Figure around US$55 all told ($40 game + $15 S&H from me).

Exact shipping cost may vary. I packed the last lot in padded envelopes and shipped the cheapest way I could find and they seem to have survived Okay. If you want better packing/faster shipping, then the cost will be higher.

Please note: John has not said that he has more copies and that he's willing so support another brokered foreign order.

Another one for me. How about cost to Germany (just to know)? I could post this (perhaps or probable) opportunity in the spielbox forum, too.

For the last lot I charged $15 for S&H worldwide. My actual costs varied by a few dollars here and there, but nothing too large.

If I do this again I'll do the same $15 worldwide, except Canada will be cheaper.

I would be interested in a copy to be sent to England - information do you need and how would you like payment?

I've sent a note to John to see if he's willing to have me broker another foreign order set. He hasn't replied yet. If he is willing the price on your doorstep shoud be U$55 anywhere in the world, or US$$50 for Canada.

Okay, we're on. John has set aside 15 copies of Wabash Cannonball for y'all.

If you are outside of the USA and would like a copy of Wabash Cannonball, send US$55 (worldwide, US$50 for Canada) to me via PayPal (email me for my PayPal account address). Please ensure that there's a shipping address on your order. When we're up to 15 orders I'll send the money over to John and ship 'em out.
