Add that 6th washer and then they'll up the price back to $10 dollars.

probably not taobao's fault.
My GuanLongs didn't have any washers at all.
But i got a transparent AoLong V2 recently with only 5 washers.

Over a month now and my cubes haven't arrived. Lightake are usually better than this.

After 1 month and 6 days my Guanlongs finally arrived.
They do feel cheap. They are light and dry and there are no pleasant clicks as they turn. The corner cutting isn't great either. But, they are stable, they don't really lock up and I'm sure they are capable of decent times. Overall they are very good cubes for beginners and excellent value.

Hah. Hah. Thanks. My main now.
And how is it only good for beginners? After I lubed it and stuff it can cut a good bit over 45° and I've gotten my best times on it(it's my main, as I said)

Yeah I never get when people brand something as "beginners" unless they mean beginner as in someone who's never had a cube.
If it's good for a beginner than it's good for everyone.
I've gotten all my PB's and my sub has gone down more than 10 seconds since I got Guanlong (so close to sub-30). It's been my main for a couple weeks and it's my favorite 3x3

tis http://www.taobao.com/
i found one thats pretty cheap, like 8.8 yuan (which is only 1.44 in USD)
I entered in the webpage and all in in chinise how in the hell you search cubes there? if you for example put "yj guanlong" or just "guanlong" in the search bar you get 0 results. So? Im interested in see some cubes there, prices seem to be great.
And about the guanlong, can you provide us the link at 8.8 yuan please?
Thanks

I translated guanlong with google translate and it gave me: 冠龙 I searched for that on the site and got some results.
I'm wondering if this is legit though: http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.281.d9W8Bh&id=42177452047&ns=1&abbucket=7#detail 1 Chinese Yuan is €0.13
Well 1 yuan is impossible, that should be an error or a scam. Lets see if Bryan Chi give us the link at 8.8 yuan.
But while he does, i found this one (its not the one he is talking about, but a bit more expensive 9.90 yuan = $1.6)

Oh and i found yulong too, but this one i would like to know if its true, because yulongs in all colors (transparent, stickerless, white, black) at 10-12 yuan, depend of the color you choose. Thats around $1.8 lol

if all of this is true, i want to make a post with all the links to various items in this webpage at ridiculous prices for people, i think would be a great information
i found this page to translate it, but only for buy, dont translate the items and you cant search items with it.. but when you decide one you can paste the link in this webpage and you can buy it in english

-----another question for Bryan Chi. in this webpage you need to pay shipping? or its free worldwide?

Mine is really improving with use.
If I actually go through with my plan to give a few GuanLongs away to strangers I meet, I want to know what experience they might actually have with it. To that end, I'm avoiding altering my GuanLong in any way, because they won't know how to tension it, they won't have any cube lube, and they won't be inclined to re-sticker it. And I must say, so far it's pretty decent without performing any aftermarket refinement.
