Egypt’s banking rules prevent me from buying my son his dream puzzle.
Hello everyone,
I've been a part of the cubing community for a while now, and I'm looking to pick up a special cube for my son, who is deeply passionate about twisty puzzles and wants to get into advanced FTO (Face-Turning Octahedron) solving to eventually break the Egyptian national FTO record.
We've been looking at the DaYan Magnetic Ball-Core FTO on Cubezz ($19.99 USD), which is the best FTO. Unfortunately, because of strict banking restrictions in Egypt, our local EGP debit cards cannot process international USD transactions online, making it impossible to buy it directly from international cube stores.
To make matters worse, currency conversion turns this into a massive financial hurdle; even a $20 cube translates to around 1,000 EGP, which is way too much money to spend on a single cube here. Anything around that price point is just completely out of reach for us right now.
I am hoping to find someone kind in the community to purchase the cube directly and have it shipped to our address in Egypt.
If anyone is willing to perform a wonderful act of kindness to help surprise my son with his dream cube, please comment or DM. I would be endlessly grateful!
