Update on QVC folding cubes

[frans]

Just got my QVC (qvc.com) folding cubes, 3 of them in the U.S. mail priority shipping. My total price, including shipping, taxes etc. was $26.27. That price includes one cube the same size as the original (I never measured the original but it feels about the same size), and then two more of smaller sizes. The smallest one is 12" to a side. Really good for those packing trips where size and weight is critical...
The material they are made from is virtually identical to the original German ones. Except for the throw line holder and velco closure.
My heart really goes out to the guy who invented these. I trust he protected his patent in some way...

Got my set, and let a bud have the 14 inch. I put two lines in the 16, one (the 2nd rarely used) one under the plastic bottom. And may use the 12 incher... but that 16 is so easy to flake back into, as compare to a 5 gal pail, that it is the ticket for missed throws, not just storage....And I sure miss em, even with that darned BigShot...LOL

Hey, I just went to Pier 1 Imports and they sell them, 12" size, for 12 dollars, and they are made of canvas. I almost bought one, but i think the nylon QVC ones are may more light weight. I may have to make a purchase.
