No, I am not complaining. I am just telling you guys about my experience with the Cubicle and would like to see if anyone else had had similar problems. So this is the story: On Wednesday of last week, I ordered a white GuoGuan YueXiao from the Cubicle. It took four days for the package to reach the USPS in White Plains, New York. And Sunday night, it said that the package departed the White Plains facility and was on its way to my state, Georgia. This morning, I checked the tracking and apparently it only departed the facility at 4:00 this morning. And I swear, the tracking claimed it departed on Sunday night. And it also says expected delivery day is Thursday. That means if it DOES deliver thursday, I will have be waited a week and one day for a simple 3x3. Next time I order a cube, it's coming from SpeedCubeShop.

Always purchase rush processing. Usually your cube will go out next day. And yeah, USPS around this time of year is garbage

I did this, and it still took a long time. It was when they were doing a big promotion with the Halloween cubes. @4Chan was working night and day to get all those custom orders out and it still took a long time. Those guys don't have enough staff to operate at the massive volume they do. They spread themselves too thin.

The Cubicle has certain products that you just can't get anywhere else, but they're not the fastest. And they don't claim to be the fastest. They claim to have excellent products and yes, they do.

I miss Cubes4Speed. Fastest cubes. Fastest shipping. Best prices.

Except for when I ordered during the 2015 black friday sale, I've never had an order take more than 2 or 3 days to ship with standard shipping. I will say that my one order from C4S was faster though.

And how is this the cubicle's fault?

True. But still, I've had experience like this with another company. They had it given you usps and then didn't get it for a month. Tried another company and worked fine

Sounds like more of a USPS issue. Anyway a week is nothing. You should try the South African postal service. I've had a package take 6 months to get delivered. You don't want to know what the tracking looks like after that.

Damn

Uh... this is USPS's fault, after the cubicle makes the order and brings it to the post office, they have no control over what happens.

Oh ya

I don't want to spend more money,

 

[Dom]

Wow! Thanks for the effort. Seems to really make no difference. I think, I'll order one of these next time.

Just discovered that the Yuexiao dual adjustment kit comes in primary as well. Primary plastic would be a good match for stickerless. Or have you already made your purchase?

 

[jaredye]

So do you guys have the new Wuque 4X4? Heard the old batch has high defective rate. Just want to make sure what I'm getting before I make my purchase.

when the Wuque first came out, I noticed that very soon after, the stickerless version appeared to be sold out. The cubicle website said it was backordered. This leads me to believe that any stickerless Wuque you buy today from the cubicle will not be from the first batch.

Thanks for the info. I'm indeed interested in the stickerless version. However, it seems the Qiyi official account said that the new batch was first sent on 12/14. I don't know when they get their current inventory so I just want to make sure.

Where do you buy cubes from?

Yeah lol, I've heard stories. When I visited family there, we sealed our bags with tape so they (a few corrupt people) couldn't get in.

Ikr. Today is the expected delivery date of my YueXiao but I know that'll be delayed and I'll be waiting until next week. I've been waiting for 8 days now. Ordering from SCS next time.

let's see here... you agree that USPS is the problem (not the cubicle), so you conclude that you should take your business to another store that ALSO uses USPS....

i lol'd pretty hard

Edit: then again, perhaps the USPS service in cali wouldn't have the same issues atm as the services near the cubicle, so idk anymore lol nvm.

I was about to order yesterday to use the best-cubes-of-2016-discount. But then I realized, that the only discounted item I ordered was the thunderclap. So I decided to wait for a better offer or more new items that I want, like the magnetic clock...

 

[Dom]

@4Chan I saw that the description of the Cubicle Jacket says it has pockets, but I can't see pockets in the picture. Would you be able to post pictures where I can see what kind of pockets it has and if my Wuque would easily fit in there?
Thanks in advance!

 

[4Chan]

Sure! I can try to do that tomorrow if I remember.

However, I can definitely attest that the pockets are large enough for moderne big cubes.

I placed my order on the 31st December.

This was an order outside of the US but they promised (and I paid for) delivery between 5-10 days.

I contacted them three times and each time was ignored. I sent a final email today and finally got a response.

Delivery can take up to 40 WORKING DAYS.

This is not what was stated especially when they charge you for a courier delivery (not standard post).

Would never order again or recommend.

Sorry about that. They said I would get my package in 3-5 business days and I got it in EIGHT DAYS!

There's nothing the cubicle can do about USPS.......... they ship the order, once it's shipped it's out of their hands.
