Description

Where do I begin with this beast of a puzzle? It's one of the most sought after puzzle lock with multiple fanatical fans wanting to collect every single lock made by Rainer. He definitely knows how to make locks that would stump any thief looking to loot one's puzzle collection! It'll stump their minds and is made so sturdily that it'd stump their aching hands and demand power tools to break through!

It's not an easy puzzle at all and I struggled for a long time working on it, but it was such an amazing set of moves that I had fun replaying the solve over and over again. Sadly, it's time for me to let go of this marvelous puzzle. I have other puzzles crying for me to purchase them and to test my feeble brains against them as well. Plus metal always makes me anxious about scratching them up which is not too different from scratching up wooden puzzles as well I suppose.

One "complaint" about this lock is that it's not easy to stand it up on the 2 prongs extending past the bottom of the lock and while the lock is a hefty chunk of nearly solid metal so it's not likely to get damaged or even scratched up from tipping over, it can do some serious damage to other nearby puzzles if it falls on them. So I have a custom 3d printed stand to hold the lock upright and it even comes with a little slot for the lock's key to fit into the stand along with the lock for display purposes.

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.

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

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...

Vertigo by Dee Dixon

Vertigo definitely lives up to its name considering how easy it is to go around and around in circles with this puzzle!It's a good thing that it's so pretty and nice to look at considering how long I spent just staring at it like an idiot lost on the next step to do! I liked it more than most of Dee's other works. It has some very nice steps that I was impressed by and liked to repeat just for the tactile pleasure of executing these steps.Grab this bad boy to enjoy as the first puzzle of 2026!I ...

Free Me 8 by Joseph Turner

Joe Turner is famous for his coin release puzzles which he first only made for family and friends, but then his works circulated in the puzzling community and he was encouraged to develop his creativity and make more designs for paying strangers.At this point, he's made 9 different coin release puzzles, and this one may be his best of the lot. It dramatically stands out by being a large puzzle box that solvers have to open with tools they find while poking at the box. It's much larger and more c...

Daedalus by Gregory Benedetti

Daedalus is one of these rare puzzles that you just know will be an instant classic hit. Described simply, it's a TIC with teeth! And yet that fails to accurately describe it since it's not similar to other Turning Interlocking Cube in the feel of solving this puzzle.When first given this puzzle, the goal is to take it apart and then to put it back together as a cube. But this is no simple task. There are internal grooves and pins traveling these grooves to form a strange maze that you can at ti...
