Georges,
I just bought a puzzle which you had one of - but it remains listed. What happens if someone else tries to buy it?
Thanks

Georges · **Posted:** Sat Jun 06, 2009 2:17 am

With the shop software I use, I have to manually delete the bought items (which I did just now for the FTO you bought).
Should a puzzle be paid for more than once, I will refund the total amount to the buyers that paid after the first buyer as soon as I get information on payment from Paypal.
Luckily this hasn't happened yet.
When I am away from home, I usually take the shop offline, so you can see the items but cannot pay for them.

Thanks for this. (I was more worried that someone had got there before me.)

Correction, it has happened, I have bought a black pyraminx crystal while it was bought by someone a few minutes earlier

Oops, it seems as if I can't keep track of all the transactions :-(

The matter was resolved perfectly though

Looks very nicely set up. I will definitely bookmark this under my cube tab and consider a purchase or 2 later on. =)

Georges · **Posted:** Sun Jun 28, 2009 2:41 am

The puzzles below will soon be added to the shop.
I'm not yet sure about the prices.

The Dogic is an original Hungarian one, not the one by Meffert.
The Star Puzzler is one of those cherished by Klara :-)

LOL, I will stick to my Collectors Anonymous 12 step program and let someone else get a chance to pick up this one. :wink:

I believe the program I am following is rather effective, since I was able to watch you win this star puzzler on ebay a couple of weeks ago without placing a single bid.

Georges · **Posted:** Thu Jul 02, 2009 2:10 pm

The Dogic and the star are sold already.
$250 for the Dogic
$155 for the star

From the 30.7.2009 newsletter:

Hi all,

The following puzzles have been added:
1 French Calendar Cube MIB from Idéal Loisirs France
1 French Calendar Cube in not so good condition from Idéal Loisirs France
1 Pepsi Can Sliding puzzle without packaging
2 lots of six cubes each (KO cubes)
1 SIMBA cube

Several prices have been heavily reduced (Batman 2x2x2, Pentangle Cube, Dominoes,...)

Enjoy!

Georges

Hello Georges, I don't see the "1 Pepsi Can Sliding puzzle without packaging" item in your store... Did it sell fast? Also, out of curiosity, could you tell us how much it was? Thanks.

Skarabajo.

Thank you for asking, I forgot to upload it. It's in the 'puzzles' section for 11,50 euros.

My shop was offline during my 3 weeks' holiday and is now again online.

From the December newsletter:

I have added some puzzles to the shop and reduced several prices.
Amongst the new puzzles you will find several Old Hungarian Supernovae,
a DIY c4u Gigaminx, some Face Turning Octahedrons and more.
Enjoy!

Shipping question - how long will it take for an ordered item to arrive in the UK? I was hoping on getting he Alexander's Star.

I guess the same time it takes from UK to Luxembourg: a week or so.
Sometimes I get my packages within 4 days, though.

Retr0 · **Posted:** Sat Dec 05, 2009 12:15 pm

I have another question. Upon reviewing my payment, it says that shipping within EU is 6 Euros, however the postage and packaging as an additional 5 Euros.

Is this right? I wouldn't expect to pay 2 shipping fees normally.. I haven't clicked "Pay now" yet, just in case.

Georges · **Posted:** Sat Dec 05, 2009 12:20 pm

Retr0, I can't find that I have added postage and packing fees.
Have you chosen "shipping within EU" as shipping method?
Anyway, the total will be 13 euros in your case.
Should you be 'forced' to pay more, you will get an immediate refund.

Retr0 · **Posted:** Sat Dec 05, 2009 12:21 pm

I have chosen that at the method, as shown in my image above.

EDIT: I have now paid, and am awaiting the refund of 5 Euros.

Thanks.

Yes, refund sent.

Retr0 · **Posted:** Sat Dec 05, 2009 12:31 pm

Thank you very much, Mr Helm. I'm so excited for this puzzle now

Georges · **Posted:** Sat Dec 05, 2009 12:36 pm

Could you try (without sending money) if the problem subsists?
I have changed some minor detail in the program.
Thank you

Your package will be sent next Monday

Olivér Nagy · **Posted:** Sat Dec 05, 2009 12:37 pm

Georges:

Is it possible to ask from you, to put some puzzles aside for me?
If I'm right we will meet at German Cube day 2010. And at there I can pay the puzzles. (or we can swap...)

Georges, I've just ordered the same puzzle as Retr0 and the same problem occurred to me.
At your website I got a total of EUR 13 and Paypal added another 5.
I paid the 18 having read Retro's story and I'm looking forward to a resend of 5.
Thanks!

I'm confused. My payment of EUR 18 (for an Alexander's Star at EUR 7 + EUR 6 shipment) has been repaid by Paypal immediately. Any explanation?

Georges · **Posted:** Sat Dec 05, 2009 1:54 pm

Please check the Paypal message and your email.
I sent explanations to your email address.

Georges · **Posted:** Sun Jan 17, 2010 5:32 am

I have sent an order list to you, please kindly reply.
Thanks.

Hi all,

The Puzzle Corner is in the process of being moved to a new location under a new name.
For the moment being nothing can be bought using the old Puzzle Corner.

There will be a search feature and first time customers discount coupons......

Hi Georges

Congrats on the new shop!

Not sure if it's a fault or not but....if you click on the pay with paypal symbol before going through the three stages of checkout it takes you through to the paypal payment page but it doesn't include any shipping costs....you might get a few accidents!!
