Loco Lock......

Don't buy this one. I went slightly loco in a literal sense. This lock is the most innocuous of all puzzle locks I have ever bought from Boaz. There's no unusual features or obvious differences from an ordinary lock unlike others from the same maker who often were more merciful with obvious quirks and places to start investigating when puzzlers first attempt solving them. But for this lock, there's nothing obvious to raise a curious brow at. And yet I suffered so much because of this lock!

Weep for my pain, brothers and sisters!

This lock is diabolical and I consider it a polarizing puzzle where solvers either breeze through or struggle for way too long against this lock. It's not an easy lock in my opinion and it doesn't like giving anything away. The only good clue to the solve is.....well I won't spoil it for you.

I will add a comment that I was very careful with this lock and it's completely scratch free. So it's in near-new condition.

Also this was a puzzle made for the IPP40, but production of Loco is fairly difficult with many defective copies. So Boaz did one run after the IPP and decided to not keep Loco in stock like his other puzzle locks afterwards. So he isn't selling copies of this lock currently or anytime soon.

I accept and prefer using Zelle as my payment method of choice.

I accept Paypal. I prefer Friends & Family due to the IRS tax rules. But if you rather pay with Goods & Services, I will accommodate that preference.

I accept Wise for international buyers.

I am willing to consider other desired payment methods.

Shipping is USPS or UPS

Buyer chooses the shipping service and shipping speed, First Class or Priority (assuming the package is under the weight limit for First Class).

Insurance is optional, but buyer has to cover it if it is desired.

I ask the winner to hold off on paying until after I calculate and message final shipping costs to be added to the final bid.

Please notice that with the Thanksgiving holiday coming up, my shipping out this puzzle may be delayed. It will still go out within the 5 day period dictated by PuzzleParadise, but please be patient if I end up using most of that time.

Payment Methods: Wise, Other payment method (see description)

Inelegant Fake by Haym Hirsh

The Inelegant series of puzzles is a fairly unusual assembly or packing puzzle. The goal is to simply assemble the pieces into a cube. But each puzzle in the series delights in messing with the underlying design of the pieces. They started with the Inelegant Soma where the pieces were based on the Soma Cube design, but the voxels were stretched from being cubes into rectangular voxels that got glued into the Soma pieces we know and love. However this "distortion" results in forming a cube that a...

Cerberus by Girish Sharma

Cerberus is living up to its mythological Greek name of the three headed dog guarding the boundary between life and death! Be careful of the dead ends you find yourself in this maze or the phrase "dead end" might become literal!The puzzle is an Interlocking Cube, not a TIC. So there are no rotations involved here. But that doesn't mean it's easy. The pieces really love to get in the way of each other. Usually the solve gets easier once all of the pieces are put together and just need to settle d...
