How much money have you spent on cubing?

[ManasijV]

Not more than 10$

 

[Novriil]

huuh. *calculating* crowns into US dollars?? about 11 is one $ soo...
0 - first cube.. mothers old I didn't pay for it.
230 - second cube
0 (50) - third cube, but didn't pay for it too
40 - vaseline (when I was young and stupid)
60 - silicone spray
90 - new pyraminx
85 x 3 - new c4u cube.. (but I'm selling two of them with 100 so umm. minus 200 too.)

so ~475 crowns mean.. ~42 dollars.

I've spent a whole lot on cubes, not sure if it 500-1000, or over 1000. And I've never been to comps, so no travel or fees there.

 

[andatude]

Between $100 - $200.

I've bought :
V cube Set on sale
4 3x3x3's
1 4x4 DX Mefferts
1 4x4 Eastsheen
1 2x2 Eastsheen
1 5x5 Eastsheen
1 5x5 Rubiks.

 

[EE-Cuber]

I'm about 6 months in and I have already spent about $300 USD

However, I also recognize that this is one of the cheapest hobbies someone could have really so I don't feel so bad about it. Some people spend 300 a week golfing etc...

(Plus having a good salary helps )

 

[Logan]

About $200 Excluding gas and competition money.

This would be a lot higher if I had a job. I can't really get a real job because I'm 13 (14 on august 6th!) and my parents won't pay me for chores (economy ). So I've been looking for jobs like mowing and babysitting but There are a lot of kids ~16 in my neighborhood to do those things So I don't think I'm getting any cubes for a while.



EDIT: Whooooo! 100th Post.

 

[MichaelErskine]

A few hundred on puzzles plus contests.

...plus psychotherapy

 

[endless_akatsuki]

I'm not even sure really. I can't even really keep track of all the 3x3s I have gotten (plus some broken eastsheens...)
I said 50-100, but it could very easily be more if I find some more puzzles in my room.

 

[rahulkadukar]

A lot will be spent now as I am going to get my first salary

 

[tanya33]

Please humor me. I did search and couldn't find any threads like it.

The Rubiks Brands were purchased from Amazon 3 years ago when I was a beginner. They were on sale and not very good.
