    PuzzleProz, I guess, it's closest that I know of, but Cube4You is good.

    Isn't puzzleproz in Hawaii? I'm pretty sure that Rubiks.com is in Toronto...

    Yeah PuzzleProz is in hawaii, I had no idea Rubiks.com is in Toronto though, that's probably best then.

    I live in Canada eh....and I have ordered from Rubiks, Husky Omega, Cube4you and Mefferts a few times will great success. Rubiks is expensive and even in Canada it isn't worth purchasing from them imo. I would order from any of the others without hesitation: keep the order under $40 canadian (excluding shipping) and you will pay no duties or brokerage if you get it shipped USPS which connects to Canada post; 10 days to 21 days delivery (usually around 14).

    ....because Rubiks.com is expensive product, the same shipping price (or close) and has a very limited supply of products. Shipping from China took 5 days longer for me and was much cheaper and I got the products I wanted instead of crappy Rubiks 2x2, 4x4 and 5x5's and they don't carry megaminx/square-one type cubes at all.

    Dude, Rubik's.com DIYs > C4Y cubes.

    Most people will disagree, but if you know how to tension a Rubik's.com DIY it can be SO MUCH BETTER.

    C4Y cubes have the edge caps, though... ><

    Dude, if you reread what I wrote, you will notice that I didn't say a single negative thing about Rubiks 3x3 (which I use as my mine cube and have 3 extras as my next favorite cubes); however there is more to cubing than 3x3's, and the original post is not restricted to 3x3's.
