Humble Bundle Weird bug ?

Open
Freilyreydia

I was on steamgift earlier and saw that ad for a new humble bundle, (https://ibb.co/zWS6HMdr) but when I click it out of curiosity, I got greated by that (https://ibb.co/Myw9YXfs).
It's beyond weird cause Humble is known to be relatively available everywhere and I'm from france, which is commonly available.
Do people here have access to the bundle ? Or did it disappear for you too ? Or did humble had an issue ?
I'm very curious to know what it looks like for you all
Here the link from the ad from steamgift : https://www.steamtrades.com/redirect?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.humblebundle.com%2Fgames%2Fboard-game-all-stars-renegade-game-studios

I saw it too and my only guess is that it's a physical board game bundle not available for us. If it was a steam bundle there'd already be a topic on it, I'm sure.

Cannot be worst than the immediate post covid era, a lot of people had really bad time with kickstarter boardgame at the time.
Still I don't really believe that the shipment is included in that price

they look like all fairly relatively small boxes, likely not that expensive to ship(as long as they have a distribution center the region) so it might be included.

Shipping estimates according to Humble Bundle
Tier 1:
US: $11.45-23.39
CA: 39.88
AU: 72.67
NZ: 72.67
Tier 2:
US: 18.60-37.08
CA: 58.79

NZ: 133.56

shipping prices in USD

So it might be better to just go to your local boardgame shop in my opinion

On the bundle page, expand "Bundle Details":

Shipping Esitimates [sic] will be listed below.

Tier 1:
US: 11.45-23.39

I think those might be in USD.

Though on renegadegamestudios.com, doing shipping estimates for Canada (logged out; no coupon), I'm getting:

The shipment being higher than the product itself feels like some late stage capitalism non sense like I'm not even surprise anymore

Granted, it is a bundle of 3 to 7 board games. With the boxes at a discount, but not the shipping.

I also have no idea what the US-Canada tariff situation is, on any given day.

The bundle being a physical one explain it all, still it's a bit weird they don't explicitly tell it in the title cause they made plenty of bundle based on software version of popular board-game in the past. It feels coherent to assume it's one of them then !
But zoning board game is a lot more work than just add translation so it's understanding the bundle is that restrictive.
Thanks a lot for the insight :)
