+$6 shipping, and it doesn't actually function like a real 360.

I don't see a buy it now symbol. There's a thing called "starting bid".

I would assume that the Rubik's 360 is still under 15 years of patent protection. So that Rubik's 360 is probaly a KO.

You can buy a real Rubik's 360 at most department stores.

They're like $12-15 in the US at Toys R Us, Target, etc. That's what, €8-10? That's not too bad.

Don't even bother with it. I got one thinking it was real, and could solve it in about 20secs. The real challenge was resetting it.

Do not waste your $0.07 on this. Its really not worth it.

Once I accidently got a KO, and they can be seperated in half way too easily. It dropped, and everything fell out into an unfixable mess. Bottom line: GET THE REAL THING.

Do you mean people should get a real one or do you mean people shouldn't get a fake one?
