Mini American Sleeves for Arkham Horror

By Saduhem, in Arkham Horror Second Edition

Hello Everyone!

I already posted this in the supplies section but I really have no idea how often that one might be checked. So here it goes!

My awesome girlfriend got me Arkham Horror for Christmas. We have been playing nothing else ever since. One or two games a day... minimum. My obsessions is now spreading to my friends and this game is devouring our days and erasing memories of any other game from our minds.

I already purchased three expansions and I really want to protect my investment. I thought of starting from the investigator cards which seem to me to be the flimsier ones.

The problem is.... the mini american sleeves are out of stock! Is that a common issue? How often do supplies refresh? Should I look for a competing manufacturer instead? I really want the official sleeves but cost more than twice as much on amazon. Is it because they're not produced any longer?

Thanks in advance!

Not so sure where you live, but mini american are available from this very site ( here )

Congrats for getting the game, and happy you're enjoying it :)

And welcome :)

Thank you for the quick reply!

Also, looking around the board I think I read that you have the Italian version of the game. Are you Italian?

I actually moved from Naples, Italy to Mississippi,US 5 years ago.

Anyway, I might be doing something wrong but after I click "buy now" it then brings me to another page that states that the mini american (yellow) sleeves are out of stock and, of course, I have no option to purchase them. The same does not occur for American Standard sleeves.

Is it just me? Either way, if anyone is familiar with the matter, hiw often are supplies of this kind restocked?

Weeell... I'd like to think of myself more as of a "citizen of the galaxy" rather than being linked to a particular country. But yes, for what's worth, I was born in Italy.

As for the mini-american conundrum: yup, it seems they forgot to update something on the website. I checked FFG webshop, and the product is not available. So, either the shop or the catalogue is wrong: you can contact FFG and ask them directly to solve the conundrum for you. Amazon.com stocks some copies, but they are rather expensive, so possibly it's not a route to follow.

As for reprint vs availability: FFG is renowned for printing a fair amount of copies without exceeding too much the demand; but they do reprint rather often, and in general sleeves are constantly reprinted. Still, I don't see any filed in the upcoming section of the site, so, back to paragraph 2, possibly they have it and there's some sort of bug in the shop. Shoot them an e-mail, or call them and check

Thank you again!

I will give them a call tomorrow after work!

Fingers crossed! And let us know, many could be in your very same situation (I remember another guy searching for these sleeves)!
