Scythe is an excellent board game, it’s just a shame that it retails for well over $100 locally. But not if you buy it today from Amazon Australia, where it’s $87. Well, Amazon US actually, but we’ll get to that.
As user “kpyam2000” over at OzBargain notes, if you hit up Scythe on Amazon Australia — making sure to select Amazon US as the supplier — the price comes to $86.75.
However, delivery is $42.70. Yuk.
Fortunately, if you have Amazon Prime (or take the 30-day trial), the postage goes to zero. If you don’t have Prime, and already burned through the trial, you could always pay for a month (currently $5) and still come out ahead.

Scythe is a new board game from Stonemaier Games. If the art looks familiar, that’s because the entire game is based on a universe imagined by artist Jakub Rozalski.”]
As an added bonus, if you’d like a six per cent discount (about $5, funnily enough), be sure to go via CashRewards.
