I really struggle to see how Moyu will profit from this. Click to expand...

Because whilst they'll sell it for $300 or whatever, it probably costs less than $50 to fully manufacture/assemble/sticker.It's a very high profit margin, if they get 100 buyers thats $25000. (I may be underestimating their manufacturing costs, but the markup would be atleast $150 so they can make a fair amount of money with few sellers.)Also they can release mediocre cubes like this before the 5x5, Pyra, Skewb etc because there is no competition so it doesn't need to be good. The Pyra/Skewb/5x5 will go through many models, this 13x13 will probably take LESS time to fully design even though it's more expensive.Shipping would be "free" as if MoYu sells cubes, they would definitely have a postage deal where they pay "x" to post all year, and if they sell to Lightake or other companies postage within China is very cheap.
