Shengshou 6x6?

I paid nearly 20 dollars for express shipping on a Shengshou 6x6 and a Mini Dayan 4 on September 25 that still isn't here. Like others its been sitting on the "outward exchange" status for a week or so now. I mean these kinds of shipping times aren't unheard of for China, but the estimation I was given said 3-7? Even counting that estimate as purely shipping time its been 8 days.

Also, the day *before* it actually shipped from China the package status in my invoice changed to "delivered"? I asked customer support about it and they reassured me it's on the way but all of these things together and all of the horror stories above are kind of making me a little weary. I probably shouldn't complain though seeing some people don't have orders from August yet >_<. May god have mercy on your souls.

Edit: Selkie's post gave me hope yet ^____________________^
 
ok, im still a little confused. champion sent it via "Intmail", so how will it arive to my house? regular postal, fedex, ups or some other delivery service. sorry if its a stupid question, i would just like to know should i be checking the mail box or wait for the knock at the door, thanks
 
Go to USPS.com and try to enter the tracking number. That's how I found out it was USPS for me. The link I got was also "intmail". It just stands for international mail.

Edit: USPS is "regular mail" in America. I'm not sure where you live.
 
I finally received my cubes today ! And I must say it was worth the wait ! The 4x4 V3 is really amazing (finally a good 4x4 for me, not too big and that does not pop/lock !), the 5x5 is as good as my broken in V-5 but straight out of the box and the 6x6 is a little stiff for now but after only 4 solves I already feel the difference.
To sum up, theses 3 shengshou cubes are great !
 
i was wondering if you ever recieved your package or is it still in limbo? mine hasnt arrived yet! i also pre-ordered from champ. the last place I can track it to is "departure from outward office of exchange" and that was 9-29-11

I still haven't gotten my SS 6x6
It's been well over a month now sadly.
BUT it IS in America, it landed in New York on the 9th but for whatever reason it's still there even though I live in Arizona.

[insert sad face here]
 
Hi Champion, have you recieved my email I sent out a few days ago? I was just wondering what happened to my order, since I know I was waiting for your batch of unstickered ones to get in stock.

I assume it has been sent out (since it's been 2 weeks since I bought). I was just wondering what date it was sent out, and if I have any sort of tracking information on it :).
 
So I finally got my SS 6x6 maybe 3 days ago and I've been trying to break it is because it's REALLY sluggish. (feels over lubed)
Anyway, I decided to take the whole thing apart including the 3x3 core. (which might have been a mistake.) I was able to clean the lube out of it and put lubix in it and it seems to help a LITTLE bit but now that i've got it reassembled the tensions are totally screwed up.
So personally I say Don't Touch The Tensions! Not unless you're super confident about what you're doing I guess but mine pops like crazy now.

:/
 
Tomorrow I'm going to take apart the entire cube, clean it and readjust-it, because mine is still exploding every solve... The internal pieces POP's too... :(
That's what I did, also took apart the screws from the core and readjusted it and lubed them. what I found is that some of the below parts of the center pieces turns really smooth but the others are really hard to turn, it doesn't matter how much tensioned are the screws. I'm thinking of making the hole of those parts a little bigger so they can turn smooth, but it still explodes a lot :(
 
At first the cube is very stiff and doesn't really turn that great, even with tensioning.

However, after disassembling / cleaning / lubing (I used Lubix) / tensioning, the cube is so much better.

How do you like it compared to a V-cube?
