DailyPuzzles is closing down

[J41]

Sad news.

That means perhaps the two biggest Australian cube shops have both closed down in (I think) 2024.

DailyPuzzles is Closing Down

Hey everyone,
My name is Billy, and if you don’t already know me, I’m the founder and CEO of DailyPuzzles.

It’s with a heavy heart that I am announcing that we are closing down DailyPuzzles. After 8 years of operation and proudly serving the cubing community, we unfortunately have come to a point where current economic conditions have put us in a position where we can no longer afford to keep the business operational and we are going to close on the 17th of April 2024.

I want to take a moment to thank all of our customers, supporters, sponsors and staff for everything that they have done, not only for DailyPuzzles, but me personally over these past 8 years. I started this business at 16 years old with $200 out of my bedroom and never expected it would turn into even a small amount of what it became. I am sincerely grateful for the opportunity I had to serve the cubing community for these years. It’s been a privilege and I will carry these memories with me forever.

We are running a closing down sale of 60% off sitewide* (excluding clothing) while we remain operational and encourage anyone who has loyalty points or gift cards to redeem them now.

I know many of you will have questions and we will do our best to address them promptly via email.

Thank you to each and everyone of you who supported our journey, whether it was placing an order or following us on social media- you are the reason we got to do this.

Warm regards,
Billy Pippan
DailyPuzzles Founder & CEO

That's a real shame especially for Tingman

 

[Nacho9]

Very sad. Even though I live in the US, I ordered from them multiple times, and always got good puzzles.

 

[Averageof12]

Its also not just tingman. TNL cubing will also be affected.

But why tho

But why tho

Not financially sustainable

 

[JDAW6]

Not financially sustainable

Wut?? It is like the biggest store in oceania

 

[TheSpeedSkewber]

I wonder which cube store is going to pounce on Tingman once his contract ends.

 

[cubenerd74]

That's really sad, Rip Tingman's sponsorship.

I’m taking bets on the Cubicle

Edit: Now thinking about it, it’s almost definitely going to be SCS. They’re putting a new warehouse down in Australia, so it’s, logistically, probably going to be them.

 

[abunickabhi]

Super sad to hear about this news

 

[Anthonycube]

Thanks for everything Billy. Cubing wouldn’t be the same without you

probably speedcubeshop.

 

[NebraskanSpeedsolver]

probably speedcubeshop.

This does make a lot of sense though.
They have already hinted that they are gonna open a warehouse in Australia at some point.

maybe he'll even get sponsored by a brand like qiyi.

 

[rebuC]

That would be cool

 

[Averageof12]

That would be cool

Yeah. I doubt he would get sponsored by GAN or YJ or MoYu. Perhaps Rubiks brand.
