A quick trip to Canada or USA would considerably add to the cost of the puzzles unfortunately! Would be quite fun, though.
I had hoped that village games in Camden (supposedly a great UK source of puzzles) would have had a working Internet shop by now but they still are not showing any stock as yet. Thus I am left to surfing foreign sites and buying stuff I can barely afford and then having to wait a huge length of time before it arrives!
What other puzzles do you recommend?
Re: What other puzzles do you recommend?
It is a shame that the Village Games site isn't up and running, but you can always give Ray and Barbara a call on the phone number on their site (020 7485 0653). I'm pretty sure they'd be more than happy to tell you what they have in at the time and hold them for you if need be.

Well worth the investment for that price!
Re: What other puzzles do you recommend?
Over the last 2 days postie has arrived bearing toys! Unfortunately he arrived very very early which upset the wife even if it did delight me!
So far have had delivery from Creative Crafthouse with:
Soma cube - craftsman edition
Muscle cube - 2 tone
Locking cube - 2 tone
Would not wood knott II burr
Mini snake cube
From Bill Cutler puzzles I have received:
Computer's choice unique 10
Wausau '83
All these look absolutely terrific - the puzzles from Bill Cutler are just fabulous in quality but they are pretty expensive. Haven't had much chance to play yet unfortunately.
Still got a few more to arrive - can't wait for the 37 wire puzzles from livewire! At least I can take these to work and torture my colleagues with!

Re: What other puzzles do you recommend?
Got my Svetnashki puzzle today! It really looks cool, but actually solving it is quite simple (if you can easily do the 15 puzzle
) Off to do patterns!
