It's the summertime in USA and time for Keegan to release a new puzzle! Except he's releasing TWO new puzzles. Since I can't remotely afford them with my current budget and lack of change hiding in sofas near me, how about I sell an older Keegan puzzle to pay for the new one(s)? Yeah that's right, Bananas is on the market for you hungry monkeys!

Anyways, there isn't much for me to personally tell about this puzzle. It's in near-mint condition with me being very careful to not scratch up any part of the puzzle. I took months and month to solve this thinking things through and being very careful to proceed. Aluminum scratches very easily and I wanted to keep this puzzle looking as nice as possible.

This puzzle was an amazing journey and I felt very sympathetic to the monkey inside. Keegan was my jailer who made a mental cage around my mind with this puzzle. He's one scary zoo-keeper to manage that! Anyways I can't say too much without spoiling this puzzle and it's been out long enough that I'm sure anyone bidding on this has some idea of what they're in for.

I'll mention that I have the original laser-cut wooden box which is an ingeniously cool feature of the puzzle. But it's still very thin, fragile wood holding a heavy metal puzzle. Despite being as careful as possible and minimizing the amount of times I took the puzzle in and out of the wooden container, it still suffered some damage with a corner prying apart where the glue weakened. I show it as best as I can in the third picture. The original shipping box from Keegan is still around to transport the crate and puzzle in maximum safety. But it's also a pretty large box at 12.5"x12.5x12.5" (because of all of the padding used inside). So keep that in mind if you are an international buyer since shipping is very unpredictable these days with the tariff nonsense going on here sorry.

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.

Payments & Returns

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

SDBBB-3D by Juno and Plumbus Puzzles

SDBBB is the middle child of Juno's "disguised as a burr" puzzle box series where it really expands on SDBB's concept into a lengthier and harder solve.After the success of SDBB, SDBBB was a very hoped for and welcome follow up, because only 40 wooden copies were ever made. So it had a lot more people hungry for the print to make up for the sheer difficulty of finding anyone who would sell a wooden copy.The print almost wasn't made in 2 colors, but in just one. Which added to the final price, bu...

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...

Waltz by Osanori (made by Pelikan)

Waltz is a 2 piece packer that Osanori came up with after a fan dared him to make such a puzzle that wasn't a trivial solve.While Waltz is not a difficult solve, it puts up enough of a fight on working the pieces into the box that solvers will still have a feeling of satisfaction once they fit everything into the box. I had a lot of fun just repeating the enjoyable tactile pleasure of leading the pair through their dance.I'm now letting it go since the solve has been memorized too well for me to...

Inelegant So-Ma 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...
