Another Guo Jia brand (not the alpha)

[r_517]

ok i just did a bit of research and it turned out that the "beautiful" guojia is made by a seperate brand but aiming at the general public instead of speedsolvers. the price for it is quite low and i guess it can be referred to as the "two dollar shop cube" except it's not exactly that cheap

kinda off topic but i always find it amazing that people in china prefer the rubiks brand(with is VERY expensive in china) over others (apparently i think Korean people do as well) while cubers in western countries generally hate the rubiks brand and prefer Chinese diys

So True.
I have a friend that cubes at school and he thinks
Rubik's brands are the best and all the other cubes stink.

only rookies like that just because it's expensive in China in most situations the more expensive the price is, the better the quality is

besides quite a few Chinese cubers think that foreigners prefer Rubik's

yeah, from what i have seen at mf8, most people's opinion is that they are the only ones who know about the Chinese DIYs, and that cubers from western countries are barbarians who only uses Rubik's brand.

"barbarian" is a bit impolite

i've get bored to explain it again and again what cubes western people love, but still lots of selfish people insist Rubik's is better coz "it's designed by foreigners"

it seems that not many of them use japanese and korean brands

They're the most inconsistent cube I've ever tried. I know some of you have good storeboughts but its not too often that you get one that doesn't require a ton of work before its useable.

*BUMP*
I bought one of those 国佳 cubes to day at a korean bookstore...

On the top and front, they say 国佳 GUO JIA MAGIC CUBE
but on the left side, it says 国丙 GUO BING MAGIC CUBE

as far as i know, guo jia is the cube mentioned on this thread, but the GUO BING cube is the type C cube...

Which one IS IT???
