$500 is a bit over priced. the current auction price isnt really outlandish though. could be a good snipe for the guy who doesnt want to wait. who knows when HQ will ship more out to marbles.halfbake69 wrote:I wonder who thinks it's worth that much !!!!

Re: R1 gunmetal!
From what i was told at our local store it appeared that there were around 8 of them combined for the 2 stores in Minnesota. (minus 2 since Chyron and I bought today)  So hopefully most of the other Marbles stores received a similar allotment.

Re: R1 gunmetal!
28 stores... an average of 4 a store... im betting this was a 125 puzzle shipment. since these boxes are pretty cubical... it would make sense.rodrigue10 wrote:From what i was told at our local store it appeared that there were around 8 of them combined for the 2 stores in Minnesota.

Re: R1 gunmetal!
Anyone having more trouble than normal with these?  I am getting serious locking up in the start ring, as well as throughout the puzzle.  Sometimes it's like it's a ratchet (without clicks) other times it's as smooth as normal.  Almost feels like the pin isn't straight up and down but at an angle so certain directions are harder than normal.  None of my other puzzles are behaving in any way like this one.

Re: R1 gunmetal!
The blue they had on display felt the same way. Could barely get in the start ring and was rough for the first section. I may hold off on buying one if there are issues.Chyron wrote:Anyone having more trouble than normal with these? I am getting serious locking up in the start ring, as well as throughout the puzzle.

Re: R1 gunmetal!
When marbles was first announced I checked out my local store and had the blue open in less than 5 minutes. Felt just like I remembered. Haven't played with any of the puzzles I purchased yesterday though.

Re: R1 gunmetal!
My gunmetal feels just fine. It was a little, uh, sticky? when I first started solving it, but it's sliding perfectly now. If you continue having trouble I'd check with the store. 
My experience so far:
Giddy, giddy, wait, what? Giddy, giddy, exuberance, confusion, giddy, confusion, oh finally, wait, how did I do that again? wait, what's over... no, no, ****, no, no, hold on, wait, trace it again, oh my... wtf?! No, really, there must... search, search, WTF?! It must be this way, or this way? no, the first way, hold on, how do I? *toss*.
I'll try some more tomorrow.

Re: R1 gunmetal!
So anyone figure out if the puzzle is dynamic or static? 
After playing with them have they been easier to move or are any of you having problems with it grinding or anything like that?
