Unfortunately it's going to be quite difficult for one store to build up that sort of status in Europe, I am trying...
Why is shipping so much? You would think that the EU’s open borders would prevent that.
the problem in life. TAXES
I don't know, it's just the way it is unfortunately, the European Union has nothing to do with it, it costs the same for me to ship a cube to the far East of Russia as it does for me to ship one to Ireland or France (usually £5.35 but more when it comes with lots of accessories or big heavy boxes [cough cough MGC]). The UK is leaving the EU anyway so I had to fill in customs declarations for the first time to Europe today, it's hardly any hassle though.
YeahThe communication with ZiiCube is always minimalist, yet efficient.
I had a surprise to receive this mail this morning:
hello, UV in stock now
I think it's crystal clear, isn't it?
They have a premium line
I mean I can't access the site at all because of this warning.
It is legit, It will probably take 2 weeks to 2 months to arrive to US though.
That's really strange. When I go to z-cube.com, I get the error:
they probably just had their cert for z-cube expire. that's what happens when you have like 10 domains
Yes it is normally, they base shipping of the packages weight, so if you to a lot, even though the cubes are super cheap you will be paying a lot. There is another chinese retail store known as cubezz that has not as low of prices but still has free shipping
it is best to buy in bulk. for example if you want to get loads of random puzzles then cubezz is unbeatable in price* (technically aliexpress or taobao have cheaper, but I wouldn't buy from them unless I had to)

Z-cube are another cube retailer/wholesaler, they make a few of their own cubes and sell most other cubes both wholesale and retail.Even more confusingly, there is a store called Z-CUBE which I don't think is the same. https://cubepuzzle.aliexpress.com/store/801230?spm=a2g0o.detail.100005.1.56995eecObajV9
Their store page says "Champions Cube Store", but afaik they aren't the same as https://www.championscubestore.com/ aka 51morefun.
And there's also this company that produces their own puzzles under the Z CUBE name and I'm not sure which.
