Cardhaus Games review

Cardhaus Games has sold board games since 2001 from New Albany, Indiana, and its shipping FAQ says nearly every order leaves within one business day, which makes it a good choice when you need a game soon without paying for Prime. Orders of $99 or more ship free to the contiguous US by UPS or FedEx, and smaller or PO box orders go by USPS Ground Advantage or Priority Mail at a charge. Beyond new releases and preorders, it stocks box inserts and accessories and runs a Dinged and Dented section for games with damaged boxes, a useful way to save on a title you plan to play rather than display. Store accounts are enrolled in Cardhaus Rewards automatically, and points come back as coupon codes or store credit. The $99 free shipping bar sits above Miniature Market and GameNerdz, and the catalog is smaller than the biggest specialists.
