Brave pioneers explore uncharted islands in tall ships, finding bountiful lands that yield valuable resources, while establishing homes and becoming the first settlers of this new world. Soon their isolated cabins grow together, forming villages, and before long they begin to establish trade with the inhabitants of neighboring islands. The island world begins to grow – the inhabitants attaining prosperity and wealth as they become skilled in trades and commerce. This idle life is treacherous – wildfires threaten the rapidly growing colonies, and the seas hide gold-greedy pirates' intent on booty & plunder.

Since its first appearance, the PC-game ANNO 1503 has been a true success story. No other PC-game has been so successful in the German-speaking world in so short a time. Now master game-designer Klaus Teuber has succeeded in transferring all of the excitement and action of this popular game into this board game, stamped with his own unique type of play. Now you can experience all the variety and adventure of this strategic game in about an hour. You guide the fate of your homeland and people with ANNO 1503!

Mayfair Games was an American publisher of board, card, and roleplaying games founded in 1981 in Chicago, Illinois. Known for titles like Empire Builder and the Role Aids series, the company gained prominence by introducing Euro-style board games to English-speaking audiences, notably publishing The Settlers of Catan in 1996. Financial difficulties led to its closure in 1997, but it was revived under Ironwind, Inc., continuing to operate under the Mayfair Games trademark.

The company underwent a reorganization in the 2000s, focusing on successful titles like Catan, before transferring its rights to Asmodee’s Catan Studio in 2016. In 2018, Mayfair Games sold its remaining assets to Asmodee North America and shut down. It is remembered for its influential role in bringing popular games like Agricola, 1830, and Patchwork to a broader audience.

Any Questions? Look Here

If you need more help, send us an email at hello@poggers.com or call us at our warehouse (262-476-5047) on Monday through Friday, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. CST and we'll help you out!

Poggers Frequently Asked Questions

We fulfill orders as quickly as possible when we're at the Poggers warehouse, Monday through Friday, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. CST—usually within 24 hours of receiving your order. If you place an order over the weekend, it will be fulfilled that following Monday. We aim to hand the package to the shipping carrier within 24 hours, but depending on when the order was placed and how busy we are (we're a small family business, after all), it may take up to 48 hours to get it into the carrier's hands.

The time it takes for your order to arrive depends on the shipping method you choose and when we fulfill the order, as explained above. Carriers typically have a 24-hour handling time before your package enters their system and they start counting the shipping days.

For example, if you select a 3-day shipping method on Monday, the carrier will likely receive it on Tuesday and won't begin counting the 3-day shipping until Wednesday, meaning you should expect it to arrive by Friday, Saturday, or possibly even the following Monday, depending on whether that carrier operates on weekends (e.g., UPS usually does not deliver on weekends). Due to the variability in shipping times, we strongly suggest placing your order as soon as possible if it's time-sensitive.

We're located in a small town of around 2,000 people named “Belgium” in the state of Wisconsin, USA. And no, it's not the country of Belgium—it's a tiny town called “Belgium” that you probably haven't heard of. There's not much going on here, but we do have a nice gas station that recently opened, where we usually get our morning coffees!

Poggers is the best toy store in the world, of course! Well, we might be a little biased... (probably). We're a small, family-owned and operated business with just a handful of employees working out of a 5,000 sq. ft. warehouse in the Midwest, USA. We sell all kinds of toys, games, collectibles, anime merchandise, and pretty much anything you’d want if you like having fun!

It's true that when you place an order, we make a couple of bucks, but instead of helping those super-rich shareholders of massive corporations get even richer, you can support us!

To be transparent, we're currently saving up to open our first brick-and-mortar location, so every order helps! We're trying to build a really cool and fun business, with (hopefully) a store that makes you say, “Wow, this place is cool!” when you walk in. The only way we can do that is with your support. So please help us out by clicking that “Add to Cart” button!

I LOVE THIS WALLET !!

★★★★★ Shane Wilson

if you’re a lifelong Yu-Gi-Oh! fan such as myself, then this is the wallet for you. It’s beautiful and the quality is amazing. Thank you so much to the Poggers family for packing it so delicately and getting it to me quick ! all love & I am definitely ordering more !

Love it!

★★★★★ Taber Long

Fits exactly as I was hoping! I've struggled to find a hat that has a theme I like while not having a massive dome that makes it look huge when worn. Quality is superb. Also love being able to support a small business that appreciates their customers!

What Other People Say About Poggers

One big wholesome nerdy family.

Just a very fast, friendly, group that feels like a classic family owned toy shop.
Every step of the way, they made sure my package was sent, tracking data and even wanted to make sure it arrived. Like a friend wanting to make sure your present arrived on time.
When it arrived, there were surprises as well, which wasn't necessary, but made me smile.
I ordered a card game, but friends of mine have ordered figurines and plush toys and have had also a great experience.
The fact this was placed during Thanksgiving and during a rough weather storm in Wisconsin was equally amazing!I
love this group and recommend it, even if it's $2-3 more compared to Amazon and other Retailers, this is such a caring retailer.
Give it a try, the service stands out!

Best Apprehension Buy Ever!

I was slightly wary originally to purchase from this story because I'd never heard of it, and when it comes to figures I am extra worrisome but I took the chance because they had a Gojo figure I'd been searching for and couldn't find without it costing an arm and a leg.
The price was fair, so I gave them a chance and I'm happy I did because the figure came in original packaging and clearly unboxed.
It was pristine and exactly as pictured, and it came rather quickly I'd like to add.
The note attached to the invoice was super cute and made me smile. (Shout out to Ray, a fellow JJK fan.) I will certainly buy from here again in the future with no apprehension.
All I ask is that you get the JJK0 Geto noodle stopper figure soon!

- Chasedy H.

Absolutely Fantastic!

I was hesitant at first because I'd never heard of this store and they are quite new, but they're absolutely amazing! Professional and yet delightfully quirky with emails and update, and the site it's self is easy to navigate! They have stock that's old and new at very good yet legitimate prices, and seem to have a range of products from Hatsune Miku to Batman to Pokemon to Skyrim! Big store variety with little store charm, will be buying from them again for sure!!!

- Ginger H.

First time customer at Poggers

Great price for a Catan expansion! Skeptical at first because they had the lowest price on that item and I've never heard of the company before, so I did a quick google search for the reliability of the company and decided to give them a try.
They're very accommodating with request. Quick and fast response/service.
Item shipped out the next business day.
This is a legitimate family owned company so I'm definitely going to give them more of my business when needed.

- Phuong

Just placed my first purchase with POGGERS…

Just placed my first purchase with POGGERS! I found what I was looking for, had a good price & received it today in a very properly wrapped box.
I KNOW my grandson will love this. I believe I have found a GREAT toy store!!
