[net.math] Unusual Rubik's Cubes from Hong Kong

-
	A month ago or so, I posted the address of where some unusual Rubik's
Cubes, iculuding a 5x5x5, could be ordered in Hong Kong and their price list.
Someone in Chiago asked if I though the company could be trusted. I was not
successful in sending mail back to him, so I am posting the reply here, and
it may be of interest to others.
	I send in my order and in about a month recieve the two puzzles that
I had ordered. I no problems whatever and the order came quickly considering
it from Hong Kong. They had problems a couple of years ago with customs
conficating their shipments comming into the U.S. Aparently this problem has
been resolved. 
	In any case I have had no problems, and do not hesitate to mention
them as a source for these puzzles.

I saw some at Games of Berkeley (415-540-7822) a few months ago;
they cost around $20.  They had some cute name (I remember "Rubik's
Revenge" but I think that's the 4x4x4 one).  I don't know if they do
mail order but you could call and ask.
