I ordered the one pictured, the pretty blue and maroon 18" Pavillion Tournament Game, with Vinyl Case. Just got my delivery, that's not what it is, It's a Wood Backgammon Game, an ugly brown one!!! Another reviewer wanted to know if it happened to anyone else....YUP!!!

What I received was not what was pictured. I got this as a gift and purposly choose the more expensive one, because of its coloring. The one I got was brown and not blue as pictured above.

I bought this game for my son as an 11th birthday gift. The truth is that I love playing backgammon and was hoping to get him hooked on it so that I'd have someone to play with, and it worked!

This version is well built and very attractive. It is easy to carry around and pack/unpack quickly. It's a great game for children and adults, so it is a wonderful addition to the family game collection.

LAST TIME I ORDERED THIS, I EXPECTED WHAT I SAW IN THE PICS AS OTHER REVIEWERS, THE PRETTY BLUE TOURNAMENT BACKGAMMON WITH VINYL OUTSIDE AND FELT INSIDE, VERY ATTRACTIVE. WHEN THEY SENT ME AN UGLY BROWN WOOD ONE INSTEAD, I SENT THEM AN EMAIL NOTIFYING AMAZON OF THE PROBLEM. THEY RESPONDED QUICKLY, AND SAID THEY'D IMMEDIATELY SEND OUT THE CORRECT ITEM (THE ONE PICTURED AND DESCRIBED) AND TO SEND THE UGLY ONE BACK AT THEIR EXPENSE. I SENT THE UGLY ONE BACK, AND TODAY I GET THE REPLACEMENT DELIVERY.....IT'S ANOTHER UGLY BROWN WOOD BACKGAMMON!! (BESIDES BEING UGLY, WOOD IS NOT DURABLE, IT SCRATCHES VERY EASILY, SHOWS EVERY LITTLE FINGERPRINT AS WELL!) SO, THIS IS GOING BACK TOO. WHAT I DON'T UNDERSTAND IS WHY MY PACKING SLIP SAYS "PAVILION TOURNAMENT BACKGAMMON", YET THAT'S NOT WHAT THIS IS.
WHERE CAN I GET THE ONE PICTURED AND DESCRIBED HERE? IF YOU DON'T HAVE IT, DON'T SHOW IT FOR SALE AND TEASE PEOPLE!!

Great Value! I upgraded this set with percision dice. I have used it for months to play local and national tournaments. It is holding up well.

My friend and I are avid backgammon players - we bought one set and enjoyed it so much (durable, portable, comfortable to play with) that we went ahead and bought a second set - one for the each of us!

I just received this item based on reviews and information online regarding this product. I'm a little confused and wondering if I got what I ordered. The packaging states "Premier Edition, Backgammon" from Cardinal. No where on the packaging is their mention of Pavillion. The invoice states Pavilion Tournament Backgammon. The quality of the item is OK, I'm wondering if anyone else who purchased this product had the same experience.

This is a great game that every house should have. Its fun and brings most of us back to when we were kids and is great to share with our own children.
