Title.

I'll sell it for 15$ + shipping depending where you live or for a trade.

I have a lot of different kinds of 3x3's (Edison, A5, F2), 4x4's and 5x5's so maybe some other type of cube like 3x3x4, Clock or anything else you can think of.

Thanks.
 
It is a Black Maru 4x4. I've had it for a few months and I've only done less than 50 solves on it. Everything about the cube is fine except the problem I'll explain below.

It has the core misalignment problem that many people have been talking about. Basically when there is 'no problem', you can turn the outer layers easily. When you start moving the inner layers for solving it like a 2x2 or for doing edge pairing the core starts misaligning and it becomes locked up and impossible to turn. Use the search feature for more on the issue.

I've looked up every thread previously posted about the issue and read what I can/done what I can to fix it. If you have an absolute fix for it, then feel free to tell me.

Now I'm selling/trading it. If you're interested in that, send a PM. That's all.

sent u pm trade for 3x3x4?
 
You don't have to take it apart to realign it. Squeeze one half to hold the core in place and turn the other half until it realigns.

(Try)This?

Yeah, I've tried that. It fixes it momentarily. When you start doing inner turns it misaligns and you have to do that again and again and again and again.

I've also glued the two blocks that jiggled around next to the core onto to the core.

Same misalignment issues...




EDIT:

It's over, I've made an agreement to trade the Maru 4x4 for a few other cubes.

Thanks everyone for the offers but it's done.

tension's too loose. dude, you shouldn't sell a broken puzzle

acually that doesn't always solve the problem, i have thightened loosened and done everything to my maru and it still misaligns 3 times every solve. I found ut that the screw on one side isnt facing straight so the mechanism gets uneven and yeah everything messes up.
