The Cubicle vs Speedcubeshop Debate

[IisCuber]

I want to use cubicle but I live far away and I am very nears to SCS so I just use SCS.

I actually think their website is worse to navigate than the cubicle's, because of the annoying "just bought" popups and overuse of whitespace. Their sticker selection is wider tho.

I think the CUbicle is more creative, in terms of their events and cubicle only items(lubes, bags). SCS is also nice, but they only have PVC and some other seasonal lubes, which are nice, but worse than TC imo. I like both shops, and like the look of sCs logos more.

yea i meant that didnt know how to just explain it. The lube in SCS indeed looks more better.

Update: SCS changed the cosmic logo and now it sucks

I haven't used SCS lube but I have very good consistent results with DNM and silk.

i feel like SCS lube is the same as TC but it has more quanity and is in better shape.

They are both good shops. We are lucky to have competition and good service from both shops.

TC shipping is pretty fast, and IMO, I would wait the extra 2-3 days to get a superior (and actually original) product.

The longest I’ve ever had to wait was 5 business days.

Which store is better, The Cubicle, or SpeedCubeShop? Which premium service is better? Who has the most innovation? These questions and more answered by the community here at Speedsolving.com! Speed Test We have heard many opinions about various cube manufacturers, but how do the 2 biggest retailers of cubes in the US stack up? (There are more cube stores out there but this thread is specifically focused on The Cubicle and SCS)

I switched to SCS once I became fed up with non-premium Cubicle orders taking upwards of a week to ship. But I switched back to TC once their processing time quickened, because TC is close to where I live so shipping is faster.

Speedcubeshop actually has slightly better prices on almost everything than the cubicle. Like the rs3m is 8.95 on SCS but its 8.99 on thecubicle.

I wasn't saying that to explain why SCS is better its just kind of interesting.

TC is objectively better than SCS. TC has more discounts, more non-wca cubes, more accessories, more lubes, better premium setups, and their videos are far better than SCS's boring and uninformative videos. There is literally no reason to buy from SCS over TC unless you're a J Perm simp and want to use his discount code lmao

I only buy the holiday mats from SCS, but I get everything else from TC.

If you want to pinch pennies, the RS3M 2020 is $3.97 + shipping on ziicube with VIP customer status

Ironically I think the holiday mats are the worst things to buy because who wants to use a Halloween mat when it's not Halloween. At least the holiday lube has some nice properties like candy cane smelling like candy canes. But I got a Halloween mat as a freebie from a purchase from somebody so now I have a Halloween mat in December lol.

I switch out my mat depending on the season.

That’s probably the only thing I like better than The Cubicle is speedcubeshops mats. I like how they are festive, but since I live in New York it’s not worth paying the shipping and waiting as long.

Since I live in Minnesota, shipping is pretty much the same.

He basically just turns the cube slowly, claims its strong, calls it a day. Lmao cubes always feel like they have strong magnets if turned slowly. What a joke.
