Sea Chest is one of the coolest puzzles I've ever seen or played with! It's a freaking pirate's treasure chest and Jesse beautifully designed the puzzling steps to be in-theme and "aged" it so it would look and feel like an ancient artifact from the distant past!

In my opinion, Jesse sold his 100 copies at a criminally low price tag!

I'm very reluctant to let it go, but I want to downsize my puzzle collection a bit and I've solved it often enough that there isn't any replay value in the puzzle anymore. That's why the starting price tag is fairly high compared to the retail pricing. If no one is willing to pay even that much, I'm fine with keeping the puzzle for longer. It's not exactly a hardship to do so!

Note that the Sea Chest and SunDial are a paired set with the same number of #93.

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 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.

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

LOL by Frederic Boucher

Frederic Boucher has a long history of coming up with wild puzzles, but he doesn't like to craft more than a handful of copies before moving on to the next design. Which is why I'm so appreciative of Pelikan for stepping in to make more copies of LOL for everyone to try!LOL is a packing puzzle where the solver needs to fit all of the pieces into a 4x5 space with only a 1x2 opening to fit the pieces inside. It's obvious that rotations will be required since there are pieces that wouldn't otherwis...

Smuggler's Hold by Jesse Born

When it comes to Jesse's puzzles, Smuggler's Hold is a nice compact one which makes carrying it around easy so I can show it off to friends and family without much worry about it being too big or delicate to share! It looks incredible as if it's an actual smuggling pirate's artifact and is deceptive in how much puzzling it can hide away in such a tiny space!I wouldn't consider it the best of Jesse's work, but that's because he's got so many utterly astonishingly incredible puzzles which overshad...

Matchbox Playground by Péter Gál

Does anyone remembers Oskar's Matchboxes? The solver had 5 matchboxes with a square shell and a box attached to it at different spots from piece to piece, and then they had to be put them together so all 5 boxes would fit inside another matchbox. It was a very interesting puzzle with 4 cavities to store small items inside and people had fun finding multiple ways to put the boxes together. It was fairly popular and not the only one of it's type! Matchbox Play Six by Olexandre Kapkan upped the cou...

Tenchi by Frederic Boucher

Tenchi is a fun little assembly puzzle that Cubic Dissection made from Fredric's design. It's an "anti-slide" puzzle where all of the pieces have to put into the square and positioned around the single cube notch in a way that none of the pieces can slide right back out of the square on either end. It sounds impossible, but I promise that it's very doable even if you have never tried this style of puzzling before.If it ends up being too confusing or demanding to fully solve, I have a solution Bu...
