I got some questions regarding popbuying. I'm planning on buying a 2x3x3, should I go with the new LanLan or the QJ? I don't know which of them is the best. (I don't care about the discount on the Lanlan, I just want the best cube)

I'm also planning on getting a "5 layer" pyramid. I already know that I'm going to order a "3 layer" but which of the 5 layers are the best? So, to recap:

Buy this one?

OR

http://www.popbuying.com/detail.pb/sku.2x3x3_LL_IQ_Test_Magic_Cube_Black-29508 This one?

As I said I'm getting a pyramid like this: http://www.popbuying.com/detail.pb/...ngle_Magic_Intelligence_Test_Cube_White-22357

Is there a pyramid of the same size but better quality or is QJ the way to go? I'd really like fast replies if you can help me because I have to order as soon as possible, thanks! :rolleyes:

I got one more question! :p

I just noticed how cheap the 12sided QJ was (plus it has tiles :D)

http://www.popbuying.com/detail.pb/...onal_Magic_Intelligence_Test_Cube_White-24167

Is there any other 12sider on popbuying that would be better to buy or should I go with the QJ there too? And thanks for your input dcrystalj
i've also tried these QJ and it's just not good enough. i've lubricated hard but still it's stucking to much. maybe i should use it more... i reccomend mf8 anyway for 12sider

Oh the MF8 how could I've forgotten :p Would you suggest a white or a black? I don't really like the colors on the white because they're so bright but a dude in a tutorial says that the white turns better. Maybe he's just unlucky?

The MF8 is the best so far, it's a Meffert's Clone for me.
I have both Meffert's Megaminx Tiles and MF8, and they're look and feel just the same.

I dont think there's difference in quality if you pick the black ones. Maybe he just got the other tighten too much from the factory.
 
Errr, Hi Jack (heh, hijack!) I know this doesn't really have anything to do with popbuying but my tracking number just became active on the HK postal service website and it's currently saying

"Destination - Netherlands"

This is interesting, as I live in the United Kingdoms...so after my little panic attack, I calmed down a bit and thought to myself "ok, maybe this is how HK post are sending their items into Europe now, with all the trouble caused by the volcanic ash." Is this the case? Will it go to the Netherlands and then on to the UK from there or do I need to be worried?

Thanks!


Also, it would be interesting to know if anyone else in the UK or Europe is having a similar experience at the moment?
I´ve got the same problem.
I live in Austria and it says "Destination-Australia". So I've contacted Emma.. She answered:

"I've enquiry at the HK Post about your order,it's the post scaned it wrong.But don't worry about it,you must can received the package,only a little longer than normal.Sorry for this inconvenience and hope your understanding."
 
Shipped 21st day. Thats half a month.
Hmm, my latest order was shipped on the 28th and became active this morning, so I would have expected your tracking number to be working by now...I think things are pretty chaotic at the moment, so your package is probably stuck in the backlog. Sorry, I know that's not very helpful to hear!

Haha! Australia? At least mine's going in the right direction, I guess! Thanks for putting my mind at ease, hopefully both of our packages will find their way to us before long! =)

Hi:
Let me clear that for you which we have much more experience in.
All packages will be seperated in different countries so as to booster the effectiveness.
Sometimes HongKongPost will make mistakes when deal with tens of thousands of packages, updating the wrong destinations and so on.
But, actually, the mailman will check the destination themselves to confirm the final address. So, don't worry about that.
It may take a little longer than normal, but generally, it will be back to you.
Thanks

Thank you very much, Jack! That's generally what I assumed was happening, but I feel much better hearing it from you. Cheers!

Yes indeedy! But I think things are pretty backed up over there so you might have to be a little bit patient.

Aw fecking hell :( I was a bit retarded and thought in reverse. Since I live in GMT +1 that means we get the 7th first, not last :fp

Oh well, I missed maybe a 2$ save there, so no biggie :rolleyes:
