My Nostalgia SS played a remarkable psychic trick on me. This is quite a feat since if you go from my back yard, burrow through the exact centre of the Earth and keep on going, you will end up somewhere very close to his back yard.

The Long Story (tm)

About a month ago, I was perusing a local flea market and found a knock-off Rubik's Cube. I had an original one as a kid and really enjoyed it, so I bought it on a whim. The knock off ends up to be so clunky that half the time you have to spin the cube 3x backward instead of 1 forward since the cubes are almost always misaligned. That impulse buy gave me about 15 minutes of pure anti-pleasure before it aerially landed in the back corner of my living room destined for Toy Story Hell.

So here we are a month later, and my Nostalgia SS just sent me the real deal. I don't think I posted anything about the crappy one I bought, so this is a great and timely coincidence! The quality difference is night and day. Both the colours and the movement are far superior, and the material is heavier so it feels more substantial. In the pictures, you can see the knock-off and the Nostalgia SS gift side-by-each.

Unfortunately my SS didn't include his reddit username, but thankfully he did include his email address. I'll send him a quick email so he knows my review is posted, and am super happy with it!

TL;DR: I bought a crappy knockoff about a month ago. My disappointment reached cosmic proportions. My SS picked up on the psychic vibes and sent me the only thing that could fix it.

Thanks Chris, you made my day!
