42. the puzzle scene
● self-produced
● hobbyist or full-time
● International Puzzle Party
● one design, various manufacturer
→ many quality of manufacturing, many prices
● Hanayama is a good compromise IMHO
57. advices
● to start by yourself, buy an easy and a hard one
● let your hands forget
● new = stiff ? used = ugly
● thinking “it's impossible” is normal
● thinking “it's not for me” is just wrong
● don't shake - find the real solution
● don't share before you master
● bloggers: think! every puzzle is different
● puzzle != text
59. where to buy?
● dedicated shops are really rare :(
● puzzle cafés?
● online shops
● <search engine>
– Amazon Japan
● limited advices :(
● ratings are hard to rely on.
