NotRussellCrowe Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Good morning! Looking to get a copy of the Keeper's Rulebook for CoC 7e. Called my FLGS and they couldn't find it in their system and I could hear it in their voice that they did not sound hope. They are going to check with their "ordering guy" and get back to me. As as a backup, does anyone have any recommendations for ordering the book (and possibly future books, especially Crucible 7's Cthulhu Britannica books) from a Canadian site where my credit card will not be stolen and shipping will not be nearly as much as the book itself? Thank you in advance, Happy gaming! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groovyclam Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 (edited) Can't you order direct from Chaosium.com ( at least the Keeper Rulebook ) with not extreme postage ? I don't know of a Canadian site that sells Cubicle 7's stuff though. Edited September 26, 2016 by groovyclam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotRussellCrowe Posted September 26, 2016 Author Share Posted September 26, 2016 No, Chaosium ships from the USA and shipping/postage is rather high, especially compared to when I order from Amazon.ca or Chapters.ca I'd love to order from them and get the PDF too but when you calculate shipping and exchange from USD to CAD it will cost me too much. Plus there may be duty charged on, sometimes you don't know if you will get hit with that until it crosses the border. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nclarke Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 If you can find a Canadian store that sells Chaosium stuff then as Chaosium are now part of Bits and Mortar any store in that program should be able to supply the pdf. Same for Cubicle 7 stuff. It's free for a store so any store should sign up as lots of publishers use B&M to support stores. Quote Nigel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Meints Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Lion Rampant in Canada distributes this book to Canadian game stores. We are trying to set up a fulfillment warehouse in Canada, but our first two contacts have not worked out. 1 Quote Hope that Helps,Rick Meints -Â Chaosium, Inc.

NotRussellCrowe Posted September 26, 2016 Author Share Posted September 26, 2016 I don't recall hearing them say anything about who their distributor was.... I thought previously I heard them say something about one that started with an "I" but can't remember. Lion Rampant has a lot of the books I'm interested in so maybe I just need to find a different FLGS. It will be pretty awesome when you get setup in Canada, great that you're working towards that for sure, always good to feel appreciated up here! Thanks!

I did find a place online to order from, http://store.401games.ca/. They have the main Chaosium products for CoC but unfortunately no Crucible 7. One thing at a time I guess. I did get them to sign up for Bits & Mortar though so that's good news for anyone making a future order from them, unfortunately I didn't want to wait until they got into the program for ordering so my book is on the way.

groovyclam Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 (edited) It might be worth contacting Chaosium with a scan of your receipt for the books and they might give you access to the PDFs. Private Message Rick ( above ) to see if they are amenable. Edited September 30, 2016 by groovyclam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think when I get around to purchasing Horror on the Orient Express the PDFs will be an even bigger benefit, especially if I end up running the game online. Â Thanks, groovyclam!

I was going to refer you to a few Toronto stores, or directly to Lion Rampant to see if you could either order from them or if they could point you at a local store. You may still want to email them and look into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotRussellCrowe Posted October 1, 2016 Author Share Posted October 1, 2016 I did check out Lionel Rampart but didn't see any CoC stuff. Have you purchased from them in the past? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCHUEY F1 Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 Not sure if you ordered yet, but check out meeplemart.com. They are based in Toronto, have reasonable shipping and good prices on the core books. I just ordered the Keeper's Screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sasori Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 There are multiple stores here in Montreal who have the books. I can ask which distributor they used, and if you can't get access, at least you can pass the details on to your FLGS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The FLGS I called can indeed get it in, in fact they ordered it for me without confirming that I truly wanted it or what the price was and only called back when it was in. Needless to say I had ordered it elsewhere due to their lack of communication. Anyways, thanks again for the offer! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
