The type`s E in your store (blue, green, red and purple transparent and gold, purple, green, orange, blue, white and black normal color) are Diansheng cubes?

These are not Diansheng cubes, one of hundreds brand cubes in China.

It is hard to know what cubes are which and if they are good or not.

You should make a youtube channel for your store and demonstrate some of them. That would increase your business a lot.

The "type Fs" are not actually type Fs. One of the type Bs on there look like a type F. Several of the C models have been confused with A models.

I refuse to order from this store until the letters are corrected.
However, once this is done, I probably still won't order, seeing the high costs of non-mefferts puzzles, but there still is a chance, depending on shipping speed.

Make youtube video is a very good idea, I will try to do so later. Thanks for your opinion.

The letter is defined by the seller himself, there is no correct or wrong. The detail mechanism, refers to the photo.

Sure I guess there is nothing in the concept of the cube that necessitates it to be called a certain letter, but giving a certain type of cube a letter helps us refer to it. It's like names. If I called you 'johnfan' no one would know wtf I'm talking about.

Considering how the predominant cube naming system is the same as the one we use here, it would really be your loss to allow your sellers to give certain models arbitrary letters.

Yes, i agree to you. The factories themself only have give their cubes chinese names, like 國甲, 國乙, 國丙, 國優, 國威, 聖恩..using their factory. No A, B, C ....Z names. So, the sellers define the names in English letter by themselves. There are no official department for the naming. Hope you understand.

Thanks your purchase and support.

So are you saying you are not allowed to change the names of the products? Or maybe put the ones we use in parantheses or something?

Just throwing out ideas, not everyone can tell what cubes they are by looking at the hardware.

I think most speedcubers are used to the C4Y names on the cubes so I think it would be a smart move to change the names of the cubes both you and C4Y have to match eachother and then name the rest G,H, ...
You will probably get more customers this way

The prices are nuts IMO. $40 for a void? I got two voids from Hidetoshi for $15 each, including shipping = $30 for two voids, from Hidetoshi himself.

It sounds a good idea. I try to do so. By that way, I am doing retail and wholesales in Hong Kong and China. I have many cubes that C4U not carrrying. It is hard to match him that he does not carry.

 

[JTW2007]

The people on this forum can probably identify any cube that cubeforyou doesn't sell. I think it would be great if you could match the ones that you both sell and then ask on here for identification of the others.

I found this:

Have really nice puzzles.

 

[DcF1337]

Nice video. I think it would be really, really awesome to be able to walk into a store and see all those puzzles before deciding to buy anything.

 

[pentrixter]

Very nice video. Did you manage to see what types of 3x3x3s they sell?

 

[AndyK]

It would be so amazing if even one non-online store in the US carried a cube with adjustable tension or anything from Mefferts

I wish I had the money to invest on that sort of store.
