This lot includes two 3D marble mazes.
XMatrix's Cubus is designed by Jeremy Goode and was an IPP Design Competition entry in 2011. The goal is to guide the ball from one side to the opposite side. I don't often have the patience for this route-finding maze challenges, but Cubus is appropriately sized to be enjoyable for me. A review can be found here: http://mypuzzlecollection.blogspot.com/2010/12/xmatrix-quadrus-cubus.html
Crystal Escape Cube is produced by Tsukuda Original. This is also a 3D marble maze, but you can reconfigure the maze using the 27 cubes. Since I enjoy packing puzzles, I really liked the combination of elements in this puzzle, including packing, dexterity, and route-finding.
Both puzzles come with their original box and instructions. Crystal Escape Cube previously sold in 2019 on CDM for $75, so I hope the list price of $50 for this puzzle lot is reasonable.

Buyer is responsible for shipping which should be less than $10-12 for small puzzles (within USA, first-class). Priority mail (and heavier items, such as the glass puzzles) might be $3 to $6 more. I charge only exact shipping costs. Please contact me if you need an estimate for international shipping. If you wish to estimate shipping costs yourself, most of my listed puzzles should weigh less than 16 ounces (450 grams). Typically, first-class international is under $18 for up to 8 ounces, and $25-28 for up to 16 ounces. I will combine multiple items for more cost-effective shipping--I have listed some dexterity, Toyo glass, Pelikan, Juno, and Boucher puzzles this time. Most starting prices are well under retail, except for some of the recent Pelikan/Juno releases.
I can accept payments via Paypal, Zelle, or Transferwise (Wise). There will be no additional packaging or handling fees.
I try to grade condition conservatively. If the puzzle shows any sign of wear from use, it'll be a B or lower. If the puzzle looks like it did when I received it new (barring any defects), it will be graded A. Where useful, I've tried to take photos of the puzzles under different lighting conditions. All puzzles are kept in a smoke-free home maintained at 45-55% humidity.
