Looks like grand illusions had 20 of them. Their website says they're already sold out.

I've sent an email to Rainer to place an order, I hope I'm not too late.

Is rainer sold out? I waited to buy them from puzzlemaster and they have listed it at $120 over GrandIllusion.

So I lost out by buying from Grand-Illusions because I could have got a slightly better deal from Rainer himself (assuming shipping costs weren't much different). But I didn't want to miss out completely so I'm fine with it.

It surprises me that Puzzlemaster is charging that much. I would assume that means they got the lowest stock.

Hopefully you guys can get one. I'm looking forward to mine!

Having spoken with Puzzle Master, they have the last 20 locks available. Their costs are higher due to having to pay the tax on import to Canada. They are now listed at puzzle master, and once gone, that's it.

He needs to get a distributor in the US! Puzzles don't get taxed on import if I recall correctly.

You're right, but there is no US distributor.

I'd consider it myself, but I can't drop 10K on puzzles to pay Ranier.

I guess I should just be happy that someone on this continent is selling them. Except I bought from the UK. *shrug*

Found a 10% off coupon at Puzzlemaster.. $542 US. Delivered. 11 left in stock.. Grand Illusions would have been cheaper.. I hate throwing away money, but if I waited any longer I might have missed out.. KIRK
