Some qeustions about certain speedcube stores

[MCRcuber]

Hell guys. I have some qeustions about Lightake.com. I have recently discovered this site and i have heard some people say that they aren't very responsible with your package. Hypothically speaking say i ordered a Dayan Zhanchi and a lot of other puzzles, would some of them get lost? Me and my friend dont have a ton of money, that site has free shipping so we think it might be the best. We just dont wont to waste our money and not receive a puzzle.

Thanks,
Mitch

Lightake takes forever to ship and actually arrive. If you're looking for the Zhanchi, I would recommend going to somewhere like icubemart, cube depot or speedcubeshop imo. They don't have free shipping, but it is much better than Lightake's shipping and still pretty reasonable.

I remember ordering from Lightake and it taking 3 months to arrive in New Zealand. Every time I've ordered from Cube Depot or icubemart my cubes have arrived within a week and a half.

IMO, Lightake is never worth it. It usually takes anywhere from 3 weeks to a few months for your package to arrive; and it is shipped via China post, which isn't incredibly reliable. I have had 1 package get completely lost from Lightake and had to have them send me another one. You wouldn't completely lose your cubes, but would just have to wait, forever. You would be better off ordering from a US-based store (iCubeMart, CubeDepot, Speedcubeshop, etc).

thecubicle.com has the best price on the Zhanchi, and they have good free shipping

Yeah. The zhanchi is only $13 (+$0.50 extra if you want the lube service).

Thanks guys. I probably wont order from then now that alot of people have issues with them. Is there any cube site that makes it so the more you order the less shipping, or something to that affect. I really need to save money!
Thanks so much!

Hey, I'm a small kitten. I work at The Cubicle.

Our address is TheCubicle.us

We have great prices on ZhanChis and as Axiys pointed out, we have free shipping no matter what the order is (assuming you are living in the US). If you don't live in the US, we have free shipping over certain thresholds. We also have a lubing service. So far, nearly all the people that tried the lubed ZhanChi ($13.50 total and probably still cheaper than the other stores) really liked it.

If you live in the US.

I think Lightake is a good choice in your case because they are one of the cheapest. You just need to be patent.
