The prices have been up to $1000 for the Angel box but I don't have the recent prices.

$10K is crazy....
On a slightly more uplifting note, one sold earlier this year for $1500 here.
Last year one sold for under $1500 at the Cubic Dissection auction. There was also a puzzle lot on eBay that sold within the past year or two which included an angel box. I think the whole thing sold in the $2000-$3000 range.
I'm collecting unplated cores! Make me an offer if you are looking to part with any. Always looking for a black and a purple, too :?

Here is a video of a cool SD puzzle of 4-5 steps, the first one is quite unusual, with free 3D printed files to download!

It took me about 15 Min to open the box, more or less the same difficulty as the before mentioned Cannonball from Enigma (visibly above on the Labby-Box).
I've obtained my version (which differs from the pictures on the website) from http://www.cmc-puzzles.de/produkt/zigarre for 17,-€ plus shipping and handling.
Don't know whether they ship internationally.

I see you have one of Jerry Loo's 10 piece puzzles in the background. Was it hard to assemble? I think they gave it a 9 out of 10 for difficulty.. KIRK

Haven't tried that one yet. I'm not that good with Burrs and such kind of puzzles.

I have heard the "Of mice and mazes" puzzle from Thomas Beutner is a sequential discovery. I could be interested in buying one: do you know how I can contact him/ if anybody (an IPP exchanger mainly interested in packing maybe) has one copy for sale?

Here is a video of a really nice Sequential Discovery puzzle out of aluminium, I have tried for very long to know a bit more about that Samuel Kissling but never found anything...
He made some wooden puzzle box too which are ok but this metal one is amazing:

3rd post in a row here, sorry...
A nice new puzzle maker popped on etsy on DEDWoodCraft shop, he has made a lot of puzzle and non puzzle boxes but he also sales 2 nice SD puzzles: Blinded II (a simple but fun puzzle which is a mix of Fuller, Snake and Pachinko by Strijbos) and Where is my hammer, in which I have already found a lot (!) of simple tools but don't manage so far to open it
Craftmanship is excellent!
Have fun :)
