Pillowed 6x6. Dealperfect - The good and the bad.

[Bomber]

Dealperfect has just started to stock the Chinese 6x6 again, this time it is pillowed. Although I find it good that a pillowed 6x6 is now available I still don't agree that they should be selling counterfeit 6x6s. This isn't the only thing, I don't know what to think now they are selling Fisher Cubes. Is it good or bad?

A very interesting find is the Screw/Spring Structure 2x2 that could potentially be very nice if someone buys it, I might have to! The measurements say that it is the same size as an eastsheen, that's good too. 'Tis a shame that it's only available in white. As some people may know you can also get a Siamese Cube, I thought I'd just add this here if anyone was interested.

They are also selling various shapes of Super Square-One along with some specially formulated lubricant for cubes! It actually has a picture of a cube on it! I have the feeling that there should be a thread just to post new products available from Deal Perfect and Deal Extreme. Although it may be a big thing that they are selling a new products I don't think we need new threads too.

These are some very interesting products from Deal Perfect!

Well, I posted that already in the Gigaminx thread..

don't buy the pillowed 6x6... knockoffs like that are the reason why dp was shutdown in the first place (I do hope v-cubes had something to do with that).

I was actually going to check to see if it had been posted there but I really wanted to say "Breaking News". At least it's spreading the news a bit.

I can't believe they are adding so much good stuff, I could order so many things right now. I would probably get a Gigaminx, QJ 4x4, QJ 5x5, Siamese cube, S/S 2x2, C4U Cube, Type A II, Type A III, stackmat timer, mini stackmat and a Super Square One.

Too bad it looks like the 4x4 is not on the site anymore. I also recommend buying the AIII =).

I don't really want to order from deal perfect given recent events, but WOW, it was now very worth waiting for the to surface on DX.

You're right about that I almost fainted when I first saw it in DX and $44
Luckily, tomorrow I'll get some money and I can buy it

 

[Erik]

Grrr, me wants to try it. It looks so tasty!
But.. I can't do that to V-cubes

 

[riffz]

Haha, if that 2x2 ends up being better than an Eastsheen, they're pretty much out of business against that, QJ 4x4, and V5

 

[Ethan Rosen]

The 2x2 is absolute crap, trust me on that.

 

[daniel0731ex]

i think the 6x6 is dienshang brand..

 

[Konsta]

The 2x2 is absolute crap, trust me on that.

Oh, you have it? Because I was about to buy couple of those.. :/

I will not buy 6x6, even if it looks tasty I like my V6 now that it has been modded, and there's no need for roundish 6x6 imo. But of course it's much cuter.

Izovire says the pillowed 6x6 is pretty terrible. You'd be better off with a broken-in/ modded V-Cube.

I don't recall him saying it was terrible, in fact he doesn't express too much of an opinion on it at all. Basically we learn that it's a 6x6 that's not quite as good as the original. All I know is that if my 6x6 is this bad, and by bad I mean falling apart literally bad, then they must be horrendous. I have to admit, they don't look as bad as my V-Cube 6. I'm not advocating or supporting the copying of these cubes because I won't be buying one at any point, but, the copies do genuinely look better than my official cube. It's quite disappointing.

Just to be clear, my V-Cube 6 literally falls apart. During solves I get the more severe pops whereby both of the internal pieces remove themselves from the cube. Edge pieces will fall out and cause 1/4 of the cube to just collapse. It's almost unbearable to solve. I know what you're thinking "He hasn't modded it", I know, I haven't. But I just don't think I should have to spend £50 on a cube and then need to correct the manufacturer's mistakes before it's useable.

The copy cubes are made of cheaper plastic and are much easier to break than the V-Cubes.

Yes, he does say that. He says that if we drop it "Boom", its gone. Whether or not we support Chinese business ventures I don't think we need to quote, or make up, untrue things just to support our own opinion. I think Izovire has the right attitude, there isn't a thing we can do. We can decide not to buy them but we always know that some inconsiderate person will.

I never made anything untrue up, and I don't see why you don't think it is okay to use quotes to support an opinion.

By "Chinese business venture" do you mean blatant patent infringement? Also he said nothing untrue or whatever you were whining about. Go mod your v6.
