LOL! i was bidding on that giant cube! im 'aolisavirus'.
i later found one for 15$ lol, idk what that other guy was thinking. well, idk what i was thinking either. i guess it was a mix of, well, how far will this guy go, and is it worth an expensive risk to make this guy go a little higher? lol.

BTW, here's a kite cube. wow i'd love that thing.

"iltfsygs" bid high on one of my auctions a few months back. The seller won't hear from him. I'm surprised that user name has not been suspended yet. I don't understand what this person gets out of wasting time.

-Phil

I think if someone has private feedback it still should show the percentage of positive feedback when they are the buyer and it is less than 75% positive. The seller and other buyers need some kind of protection from deadbeat bidders.

lol somehow i knew this was going to get mentioned here

well, i know... but i fought hard for my first Tony Fisher made cube

what? im confused. how did every else not post some one elses auction?

i don't think your allowed to post ebay items that are currently going on for bidding. all posts should done with no more bidding.

Go to the link below for rules. Only post your auctions or post ended ones

http://twistypuzzles.com/forumrules.shtml[/u]

Can you do math? (just joking don't take it personal) Theres only 5 links and 6 with prices. So what sold for $63.23? Anybody else caught that?

OPPS! i forgot to post the link, and i already deleted the link. oh boy

Yeah, I expected more competition for this one... but I am glad it turned out that way anyway!
Smart Alex was one of the very few nice mathematical puzzles I was missing!




I bid on this one just for the Row by Row. Then I realised my other Rack em Up was a Milton Bradley one! Variety is nice...!



And this is one mysterious puzzle that I bid and won, but I have absolutely no idea what it is. It is called Orbit and the company that made it is Shelcore.
(It is different than our usual Orbits)
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... %3AIT&rd=1


Yet another mysterious looking puzzle here, this one's name is "7hi"...!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... RK:MEWA:IT



Anyway, I would know more about them very soon!




Peter

ok, I admit I forgot to bid again (kicking myself). But why on the earth nobody I know was interested in this auction too?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 6044141962

Besides the Domino, what could justify a high price?

I didn't see the auction. At first look, it looks like a bunch of cheap puzzles until I saw that red/white domino. I don't know if I would have bid if I saw it.

Well, it's the first time in years that I saw what is called a Marvel Domino.

it's funny how one tony fisher puzzle can make the same profit

scrambled "unused" rubik's game for $81.00

http://cgi.ebay.com/1982-Rubiks-Game-Un ... dZViewItem

what is that multicolored puzzle that resembles a dino cube over by the world/globe thing on the right. you can see it closer up in the fourth picture down.

Its a little like the snake - its not a twisty puzzle.

Cant remember its name.

Is this the puzzle? I haven't played with it much but I do think it folds and unfolds kind of like a snake.

Dodd, yes I believe that's the one.

Strange, why is it called Marvel when Superman and Wonderwoman are DC characters?

Does anyone know what this is???

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 6045854780

Inca:
http://twistypuzzles.com/cgi-bin/puzzle.cgi?pid=1123
I don't have one, but i think it is like Rubik's Maze.

Wow... I suspected it was something interesting, but wasn't sure if it was actually an Inca because there were no arrows on sight.

Thanks Jaap!

I believe that the puzzle is really INCA made in Russia. Kind of INCA without arrows you can see
there ( left ).
But I think that the puzzle isn't complete, by it is absent three lots - cubes.

I just sold 1 of my roto puzzles. I noticed that the greens were slightly different. I am sure there are many puzzles that have different shades from each other. I thought I would take this photo while I had the chance.

I also found this stange sticker variation. Tic Tac Toe. Cube was only $1 but shipping from England was a lot more

Weird that they would refer to it as a puzzle it's really not it's more of a geometric toy there is no solved state just many combinations. I love those things. The cool thing is if you turn it inside out it makes a ball and has a hollow center that you can put another of them in the cube shape inside. They are fun but no puzzle and no challenge.

That picture must have some magic power. Another seller stole it to sell another deluxe for $299:

Here is a Wonderland Master 4x4x4 cube with box. Never seen one of these. Grabbed it for $13.

am i the only one here who thinks this is strange. I mean, the plastic is probably the cheapest ive ever used and you can buy 12 cubes for $12 from a wholesale toy store.

crap. i KNEW i should have been checking the "buy it now"'s.

Has anybody seen this cube before?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 6047336067

It looks like a cross between a cubeoctahedron and pillow cube using a diagonal sticker variation!



Peter

Wooooooooooooou veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery veeeeeeeeeeery good deal kastellorizo!!!

I think that it is like a rhombicuboctahedron but with a bit diferent corners........

Have you seen that before?

Wow! Eighteen sides! No wonder it couldn't be found in the N-sided puzzle category...
Thanks nicky_uk!


Peter

This person said that this was "driving him nuts". I just want to reach into the computer and do "R' U D" to fix it.

It seems that nothing escapes from the Twisty members radars!
(But they should really let me win so I can take it to its... birth place! LOL)



Peter

hahahhahahaha

Kastellorizo, I have been laughting for 15 minutes, just 5 more than you........ hahahahahhahahahahah

Dear spider....... hahahahhahaha

Peter, sorry about the Taz head. In fact, I didn't really expect competition on this one, yet was cautious to set my bid high enough in attempt to ensure that I win. And indeed you guys drove the price high up.

The truth is I had a watch for a taz head for almost a year now, since Phil (mashick) found one in June last year. It's crude so I am sure I missed a few, so this is the only one I catched since I set up the watch.

That picture must have some magic power. Another seller stole it to sell another deluxe for $299:

THIS IS SOMETHING ELSE THAT IS GOING ON. MAYBE TRADING SOMETHING ELSE AND BEING ABLE TO PAY FOR IT THROUGH PAYPAL. MAYBE BORROWING MONEY THEN PAYING IT BACK. MAYBE MAKING SOME TYPE OF ILLEGAL TRANSACTION. WHO KNOWS, I DO KNOW THAT NO ONE IS GOING TO BUY IT NOW THAT CUBE FOR $300. THERE IS SOMETHING ELSE UNDERLYING.

Oooh.... please Aleksey, you are too kind, there's no need to feel sorry. I wasn't even second on the bids, I was third! LOL
This is the name of the game on ebay and I believe it is a fair game!
Congratulations on your auction win. I am always glad if it ends up to a Twisty member, especially to you who helped me and others in the past!





In my opinion, mashick is one of the most smart and experienced ebayers when finding an item. He must have some sort of crystal ball LOL
Everytime I bid for some "hidden gem" I am always scared he will appear in the last seconds and outbid me!
(Plus, I love his profile picture, and that was what made me search for the Taz head!)

Nice jewel at the front:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 6051167490

This is different Has anybody seen this before. Dorn I missed it It sort reminds me of a cross between a 4x4x4 and a Fisher's cube. I know it is made from a 4x4x4 cube. I like it!!!!!!!
