Just seen this on Amazon, but I haven't seen any info on it anywhere else - I'm assuming this is/was available at special events or something like that?
2014 Tournament Pack?
Its the first "Game Night Kit" for this season (2014).
Found several on ebay the other day, too....
That explains that one then! I hadn't seen these before..
If this is a FFG tournament Pack,why is it on amazon/e-bay?

Guessing someone bought it, but didn't use it. I could see a store buying a pack but not have anyone show up so they are stuck with it.
This should be reported to FFG, as stores are not allowed to sell them.
Unless the situation is as VanorDM describes..

Not even then...
It's part of the agreement the store makes with FFG. They can only give them away. The kit is REALLY cheap. I don't even think it covers the costs FFG endures creating and distributing it.

I had a conversation with an owner, and he said FFG is ok with selling the item IF the following occurred:
1) Event was marketed and announced
2) Players did not show up for the scheduled event
3) Game items (ie Game Kit) was sold after the event date
If the store owner made reasonable attempts to hold a game night, and no one showed, the owner can sell the items online. Just not prior to the event taking place.

I can't show you the agreement, but it states under no conditions can these items be sold. They are promotional only.

The stores buy the kits from FFG. It's not like FFG is giving them away for free. Yes, they are promotional items, but if no one shows up to the event, who eats the cost (hint: not FFG)??? I don't see any "Not for Resale" disclaimers, so the buyer can sell the items if they wanted to.
Take a look at the bottom of this page:

Apparently "free to use your Game Night Kits however you feel is best" includes selling them for a hefty profit whether or not they were intended for an event.
