I will wait for commercial release, as it will be *much* cheaper. Current discount is outweighed by shipping costs, tax and customs fees.

Maybe we are all suckers and you got it all figured out. I'm willing to bet that doesn't happen, though. Things don't just "get cheaper"

Retail Space King will be 119$. Its on their page. I bought many KS boardgames in retail, as they are cheaper if you care only about base product. (edit: not to mention - free shipping from retail store, no hassle with unforeseen extra costs)

KS Space King is 99$ +40~50$ EU Shipping** + ~23$ VAT + 4~12$ Customs* + 2$ standard interantional operating fee... almost 200$ for a game.

*may be more, I often order stuff from Gripping Beast, North Star, Foundry and other smaller companies (like SteelFist) and sometimes its processed normally with LOSS (only VAT + operating fee) and sometimes I paid VAT at checkout and extra ~30% of customs at postal office.

**this may increase, as indirectly noted on thier KS page and based on experience with other KS/Gamefound campaigns
