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.

Payments & Returns

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

Quad Slideways by Raymond Stanton

So once upon a time, Cubic Dissection came out with a lovely puzzle called Slideways that people just went nuts over. It was a 3-piece burr that assembled unlike any burr puzzle before it with coordinate motion moves! It was such an excellent introductory puzzle to the genre of coordinate motion puzzles, also co-mo puzzles for faster speech and slang. It had it all! It was small, easily shared around to even non-puzzlers and simple enough to convey the sheer magic of the deceptively simple and y...

New Old School (NOS) Burr #3 (Round Trip) by Gregory Benedetti

Gregory took one look at the traditional 6-piece burr style and decided to design a 6-piece burr that would torment and screw with the minds of all prospective burr solvers. He cut out triangular notches, added triangular cuts, and introduced a wild coordinate-motion moves integral to taking this burr apart and back together.For such a remarkable idea, it's oddly hard to find anyone who is willing to make copies of this series! Eric noted that it'd be a nightmare to make and turned it down. But ...

Al Bus by Jordi Gallen

Al Bus is a fantastic printed puzzle that I had to get just for the appeal to my inner child Harry Potter fan. Growing up with that book series and movies left a life-long mark on me as a fantasy fan and when the puzzle based on the book series came along, I had to get it for myself!It's a wonderful SD puzzle that took a few hours to solve and was a lovely time. I loved spotting all of the little references in this one and hope that a similar fan can enjoy this puzzle just as much as I have over...
