Description

Smack-N Moles is another genius puzzle from the mind of Rob Yarger which was the follow up to the prior numbered puzzle #36, Keep Locked!

It must have been difficult to figure out how anything new could work after setting the bar so incredibly high with Keep Locked. But he did it!

This charming puzzle combines the sheer nostalgia of smacking moles as a child with the delightful fake-out of a well designed puzzle! This puzzle lives to set up multiple assumptions to immediately trick the solver with! I solved this puzzle over the course of a day, but I fully expect people to hit multiple walls in this puzzle and to struggle for a long time with this one! Yarger said it was one of his less-complex puzzles which surprises me a lot!

This puzzle is one of the special copies made from bocote and walnut instead of the more common all-walnut that most copies were made from. So it's not an ordinary copy of the puzzle!

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.

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...

Simple Lock 1 by Ben

Simple Lock was the first puzzle Ben ever released, and he knocked it out of the park!People found it hard, but raved about it so much after solving it. It's a very high quality lock puzzle in craftsmanship and ingenuity of the mechanisms. There's even a lovely panel on the back solvers can take off to see how it all worked inside too! I thought of it as a more toned down version of a Popplock. It's not as big or heavy, but the solve and high-precision machining is on the same level! Who wouldn'...

Simple Box 1 by Ben

Out of all of Ben's puzzles, it's interesting how my top favorite is also his cheapest (relatively speaking) puzzle to buy. The Simple Locks and the upcoming Simple Pen are more visually appealing, but the solve of Simple Box is just so much more fun and elegant in my eyes. I had a blast with it and am deeply impressed by Ben's creativity.Get this sucker so I can convert another puzzler into being a brainless fan of Ben who mindlessly buys everything of his!I apologize that my auction pricing is...
