I'm either going to have $50 or $100 soon for cubes. I currently have a White DaYan GuHong, Pyraminx, Megaminx, Red Maru Mini 3x3, RBK 5x5, RBK 360, RBK TouchCube, Custom Rhombicuboctahedron(Diamond cube), Custom 1x1x3, and Custom 1x1x1. What I'm thinking of getting:

$50:
FII
Type C
AV
GhostHand 2 Fingertip Dancing
Maru Lube
CubeTwist SQ1
CubeTwist SQ2

$100:
FII
Type C
AV
GhostHand 2 Fingertip Dancing
Maru Lube
CubeTwist SQ1
CubeTwist SQ2
QJ SSQ1
QJ 2LSQ1
QJ Timer
QJ Skewb
KO Gear Cube (Until I get a Meffert's one)
And a replacement sticker set or two.


Any suggestions? Tips?
 
Honestly the only worthwhile things on those lists are the Alpha V or the F-II, seriously scratch everything else off that list and enjoy having some spare cash around for when you need it.
If you're going to have $100, give the credit where it's due and buy a real gear-cube from Meffert's.
 
I would go for the 50 dollar list with qj timer and skewb added. If you cant solve a square-1 yet im not sure how much fun you can get out of a super square-1. Its just like solving 2 Square-1s in a row isnt it?

Still nice to have each item in the SQ line though, such as SQ1 SSQ1 2LSQ1 SQ2

Yeah it would be nice but perhaps a bit of a waste of money if its only for the niceness, that said I myself only own a SQ1 so maybe I dont know how fun they are
 
3x3x5 and 3x3x7 would be good for the sake of having a variety of puzzles, but I wouldn't recommend them otherwise.
 
Where'd you see the KO gear gube. If it is on lightake i believe it is a mefferts. Also consider getting the gear cube extreme(or is it ultimate).

You're always getting cubes. You don't need them all them be fazt
I know, but I like having more cubes anyway. Also, to avoid putting this in a new topic, Should I learn to solve some other puzzles (skewb pyra mega Sq1 etc.) first, or learn F2L 2LOLL and 2LPLL first? no matter which order I learn them I will learn them all, I just want some suggestions on which order I should do them in.

If I only got $50.00 I would make it a priority to get a timer. It is so good because when you want to time yourself you don't have to be glued to the computer on CCT, J-net etc.
