Really what's the point of buying limited limited editions (since you call it that way)... They're not as smooth, and not as good-looking. Did people buy these for the story of how Chris invented the Lime? You spend triple the money you'd spend on a normal revo just to say "Hey I've got a limited limited edition!".

i agree with Oli, though it does still make them (even more) special nonetheless

Cuz its fun! And I'm a fan. I support these doods/makers of these puzzles. Im going to spend a little money while i got it. :) This quite literally is a fun hobby. Nothing against the rest of you guys! Just... i guess i'd rather spend money on the hobby than stupid crap like DVDs and im not much a gamer any more.

So. I have a puppy. My guitar. My revomazes. My gf>fiance. And im pretty happy. :P Keeps life simple.

Yes. Im a dork.

Im not the fastest at these things so i figure it like an investment. The more time i spend on these puzzles the less time i have to get in trouble :lol:

Either way. Thats me. Cheers to all who got a lime!

Edit: I've spread the good word of these puzzles to a couple guys, as well, who might buy the collection. Infectious enthusiasm!

completely understandable. im 22, i could be out doing drugs and drinking every night, wasting my money, but instead, im sitting at home, (maybe with a drink ;)), enjoying these puzzles :D

i also have a car and a motorbike (and 2 guitars ;)) to keep me out of trouble ;)

i've already got a lime now so i couldn't quite justify spending £240 on another lime, which is a little bit more special. so instead i used the money to buy Jason's Red ;)

If I hadn't just purchased 3 Wil Strijbos puzzles and a Danlock I'd have disappointed both of you!

I wish I could have a puzzle bin somewhere over in Europe that I can have things shipped to and then just get that bin shipped directly to me when it's full because shipping costs are killing me right now.

No, I am not taking 'puzzle bin' applications at this time.
