MY experience has been the more you order, the more swag they send.

I've never ordered a lot, so I can't compare, but with the little I HAVE ordered, I've gotten a surprising (to me, anyway) amount of swag.

What back does it have? Vanilla or Conan?

Conan has regular Munchkin backs.

I tend to get a lot of swag regardless of how much I order, but I don't know if there's a guide for that. My orders tend have anywhere from 3-6 items in them. I've also been purchasing stuff from there for YEARS, so maybe they remember me.

All I know is that if your order comes in a box, not an envelope, you better tear it apart since all the promo items are flat... and thus like to hide under the flaps in the box! I wonder some evil person at W23 does it on purpose?

I really like how much swag we get these days, and who cares whether I have to look under the box flaps. It used to be that promo items were only sparingly given out in Warehouse 23 orders, if at all, and you had to go to conventions or contact MIBs directly in order to get stuff.

In my first W23 order, which I ordered specifically for promo items, I got two non-Munchkin bookmarks, which had no special abilities whatsoever. No Munchkin stuff at all. That was quite a letdown.

I drove 500 miles to get my first Munchkin Silver Piece, because that was the closest MIB-run Munchkin tournament. They weren't being given out via W23 like they are now.

So I'm definitely not complaining about having to search under the box flaps!

In fairness to the folks four years ago, it used to be more difficult (and expensive) to get promo items, especially cards. Once we figured out some workarounds, it took a bit of time for procedures to catch up to reality. Our mantra now is, "Promotional items don't do us any good in our warehouse."

Andrew, I guess that would make our mantra: "More for us ... More for us ..." (repeat as necessary in slow voice with shuffling footsteps.)

I got those 6 cards with my last order too, along with an Igor Ichor card as well, plus three bookmarks(a regular Munchkin one, one for Cthulhu, and one for Star Munchkin) and a Munchkin coin. That was my first time ordering from Warehouse 23, so I was wondering if that was a regular thing. I certainly wasn't expecting all that extra swag to be thrown in. Needless to say, I was pleasantly surprised. I'll definitely order from W23 again. It took a couple weeks to get here, but it was well worth the wait. Of course, I'll need glow in the dark dice for that one card. If that was part of a plot to get me to order some, it worked. Now I'm wondering if the free swag varies per order, and if it's influenced by the type of order. I did order 3 items, so it seems that the amount of swag varies by order size. Either way, I respect the mantra of SJG, and I look forward to ordering from you again.
