...that I can buy for less than $30 shipped. I already have a no222 diansheng w/ A core and a storebought. Should I buy type B (for its cubies)? Rubiks.com DIY? C? D? F? Type A hybrid?

Does anyone have any experience with these cubes?
B cubies w/ A core?
B cubies w/ Rubiks.com DIY core?
A core structure w/ storebought cubies?
C w/ A core(maybe other A pieces)?

Since you've already got a no222 Diansheng, I would wait and see what the new 2009 Rubik's DIYs are like. I plan on getting one, plus a no222 Diansheng. Right now I use an Old Type A DIY and have the small washers removed, the base of the center pieces sanded down 1mm or so, the springs filed, and the bumps on the corners sanded down. It's very good (a thousand miles ahead of an old Type A with no mods), but I don't really have a Diansheng/Rubik's DIY/anything else to compare it too. :(

I've tried the hybrid of A core + centers + screws + springs and storebought pieces, its ok but not great. In conclusion, just get a Rubik's DIY. :D

K, what about B cubies with rubiks.com DIY core structure?:confused: Then I would also have DIY cubies with B core structure.. :p

Thats $30 for 2 cubes....dont know about the second one though

Should I through an A into the package, just to be safe? (maybe take the Rubiks.com DIY cubies and use A core structure):confused:
