Description
Shortly after IPP22 was held in Brussels in 2002, Bits & Pieces approached (at least) two of the Puzzle Exchange participants and received permission to adapt and sell their puzzles through Bits & Pieces.
Remove the Marbles was Ad van der Schagt exchange puzzle, originally called "To be a Bottle or not?" The goal of the puzzle is to, well, remove the marbles from their enclosure!
Balancing Dice was Jacques Zeimet's exchange puzzle, originally called "Head-Standing Cube." The goal of the puzzle is to balance the die on the slightly flattened corner (as can be seen in the lower right of the photo).
Both puzzles come in their original Bits & Pieces boxes with all original paperwork, including solutions. I'd be happy, also, to include the solutions as presented in the IPP22 souvenir book.
I will ship within the US at
insured priority mail pricing
(likely from between
$9.80 and $17.10, depending on postal code). I am happy
to ship
internationally at cost --- likely around $27 for puzzles of this weight --- but I cannot always guarantee that overseas
packages can be insured or tracked.
