Great, thanks to you i bought some from ebay :D. Very cheap on eBay people from UK.
I wouldn't use these too much though, they seem to make my hands hurt after a while. It's either that or the Christmas holidays and my overdose of computer.
"not to be handled near anyone with a pacemaker" hey grandad check this out
Hey, lets pay 80$ for 30 little magnets :downs:

[QUOTE=benjgvps;19376823][url]http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.13504[/url] :smug:[/QUOTE] That's actually a bad deal since that only gives you 100 magnets, and the Neocube gives you over 200 for 25 dollars. [url]http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.13503[/url] 20 pack isn't a bad deal if you want to try them out.
I had one of these. The coating chips after a while of playing with it. Oh, for those who have it: here's a cool trick. Take about 50 of the magnets, and use it like a whip. A magnet will fly off of the end at crazy speeds.
[QUOTE=postmanX3;19338885]Holy shit, those look awesome. I will totally buy one. [editline]09:34PM[/editline] Never mind, they're a tad expensive. Seems like ~$20.00 dollars would be more appropriate for, say, the 251 ball set.[/QUOTE] They're rare earth magnets, they're basically selling you kickass in sphere form. Throw them at people with pacemakers and watch them hit the floor.
Found this on their site: [IMG]http://img519.imageshack.us/img519/4310/image1ze.png[/IMG]
I had some sort of cheaper version of this. the magnetic balls weren't as stable as they are in the videos so I ended up losing most of the balls down the back of sofas and stuff.
I used to have a similar toy when I was a kid, my grandma gave it to me on Christmas. It had magnetic spheres but it also had these little magnetic cylinders, I'll try to find the name. [editline]06:26PM[/editline] Found it: [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geomag[/url] [editline]06:26PM[/editline] [url]www.geomagworld.com[/url] I had the Pro version, in blue.
[QUOTE=jetboy;19329134]That's for the huge one. The normal one he used in the video is $24.95.[/QUOTE] That cost about $3 more than my dinner at Five Guys last night like fuck.
The Neocube Alpha has 216. (A 6 sided cube) It also comes with some spares in case you lose any. Cost me around £20 but on a lot of sites it's on sale.
holy shit i want one
Looks awesome :v:
those balls look fun [editline]03:26PM[/editline] to do stuff with
These are boring and overpriced. Hurr hurr "Rare Earth Magnets!"
[QUOTE=Robber;19376390]1027 magnets. You can get 27 for 13$[/QUOTE] I can get 1kg of magnet for free from my work and pay 20 bucks to make it in to balls. Which I will do.

[QUOTE=SGorilla;19382891]Your avatar fills me with rage.[/QUOTE]But it's...a heart. You should feel happy that he gave you a "Hand-heart".
:aaa: I want one.
A hand heart? Ok. [img]http://www.lukechueh.com/images/sightings2/Fan%20Art/Heart-In-Hand-by-Taylor-Co.jpg[/img]
I can see the scenario: Dad: -Son, what do you want for your birthday? Son: -I want some balls to play with, daddy, like the ones I saw on the internet! [editline]12:27AM[/editline] I want to buy like 5 million of them and build myself a house only using balls. Or maybe just a shack. Or something smaller. Like a chair.
Going to order 1027 for me, 241 for a friend.
[QUOTE=K00n!;19328844]there's no way im paying that much money for a couple of magnets[/QUOTE] this
Way too expensive, because I won't be paying that much for a toy that I would probably get bored quite fast
Exactly, if I could get it cheaper I would totally get it.
