Controversial? idk
Let me know what you think. That would help a lot.

I must say I'd agree with everything you said. I've found that TheCubicle stickers have been getting worse. I have an Aolong V2 that I put TheCubicle custom stickers on when I bought it a couple years back. Did over 13000 solves on it. Pulled it out last night and the stickers are still perfect. I restickered my GAN Air 2 weeks ago with new TheCubicle stickers and 3 of the faces have significant chips already, and as you mentioned it is only the non-fluro colours that are chipped. Unfortunately short of buying my own vinyl cutter I can't get anything locally.I am very disappointed by the quality of Cubicle stickers. They chip way too easily. The stock stickers on my AoLong lasted 3 years and the adhesive failed before they were significantly chipped. The Cubicle stickers I replaced them with were chipped within a week. It seems to affect the non-fluoro colours, so half my faces look perfect and the other half are chipped like crazy.
Personally I don't think "standard" stickers should chip so quickly and easily. That is poor quality product and I don't expect to have to buy premium just to get basic stickers that do the job they are supposed to.I asked a while back about theCubicle offering premium stickers that are more like the stock moyu stickers. I think the answer was that if there was enough interest they could look into it.

I would personally be happy to pay $1.50/face for really nice, thick stickers. It seems like at least a few other people would also be willing to do that, and it wouldn't take too long to pay off some higher-grade vinyl stock at that rate. Maybe I'll have to try SCS stickers next time I need some.

I don't know. I tend to think there's a place for economy stickers and a place for premium. Especially if I want to experiment with color schemes, I'd rather do that with cheap stickers, and, once I figure out what I like, spend the extra for something that will last. Even if the premium was the only option it would cost more than the economy stickers they sell now. I don't think the current cubicle stickers are outrageously expensive, and I can personally get at least several months of use out of a set. My hope with premium stickers would be that I could get years out of a set instead of months.
I wouldn't call moyu stickers premium but idk why cube stores wouldn't offer longer lasting stickers. It maybe because they cant obtain them or they don't see a big enough profit to waste their time and investment.
Maybe so, but I didn't buy economy stickers. I bought regular stickers, which should last longer than a week.I don't know. I tend to think there's a place for economy stickers and a place for premium.

I keep my nails as short as they will go, but yes I expect it's my nails that cause the chipping. Nevertheless, I'm making a relative comparison. My nails don't destroy other stickers nearly as fast.I never usually touch the cube with my nails- only the soft padding of my fingers.
I have to keep my finger nails really short to try stop some of the chipping, something that I've never had to do until recently. Even the stock stickers on the Valk are turning out to be quite rubbish.I keep my nails as short as they will go, but yes I expect it's my nails that cause the chipping.
