Thanks for the info!
Looks like a few online retailers have it for this price too but a lot don't offer free shipping under $100.

One player plays as the Rebels, the other as the Imperials. Both decks and the market row contain recognizable characters from the Star Wars universe. The Rebel player can recruit other Rebels and Neutral cards. The Imperial can recruit other Imperial and Neutral cards.
The ultimate goal is the destroy 3 of your opponent's planets. Each player has multiple planets to choose from that all have different abilities while in play.
SW:TDBSCG also includes the ability to "kill" cards in the market row via bounty hunting, which was a cool new mechanic.
There is also a Force track that makes one side or the other stronger as they become attuned. Cards will allow the track to move back and forth all game.
If you've played any of the others I mentioned, this game will be a quick pickup for you.
It was a good addition to my collection and I definitely recommend it if you like deckbuilders in this style and the Star Wars theme.

As a competitive deck builder, it often ends up just being a race to whoever buys the first card that costs 6 or more (the big boys - Luke, Vader, etc). Whoever gets the first one of those pretty much always just keeps extending their lead so there's not much reason to keep playing after that.
The cards available to purchase are limited as well - 6 available at all times and the Rebel player can only buy Rebel & Neutral cards, Empire player can only buy Empire&Neutral. If one player ends up with only 1-2 cost cards available and the other player has 3-5 cost cards available, they really have no chance.
It's not a bad game (thankfully its quick) but more often than not it just feels like you're playing a game that's per-determined by the initial shuffle.
