Before staff made him smarter, he gave me an expensive tool for a bubble. I think it was a Grand old Grinder, but I'm not sure. It was basically a 1998 currant profit.
I always get great deals from good old Rube - My last two trades were for Grand Old Grinders as well (in exchange for a tin ignot and a hard bubble). He also likes to give me 12-sided die. I've never gotten a cubimal though.
I think my best offer was a Crystalmalizing Chamber for a sammich.
Out of curiosity (and because I'm a cubimal junkie), has anyone ever received a common cubimal from the Rube? It seems like everyone who has mentioned a cubimal got a really cool one!
I got a cubimal box from the game show wheel once and it was a piggy! >:/
ive twice gotten unopened cubimal boxes for basically nothing, like a butterfly milk or something like that. I always seem to get him visiting me in ancestral lands too.
Earlier, I scrolled through all his offers to the last, and that was a cubimal box for my fancy pick. I accepted against my better judgement (thinking of the odds of getting one I could get for peanuts) and opened it, totally expecting a chicken or pig, but...
I got a yeti. o.o Those are on the rarer side, right?
I haven't seen the Rube in awhile. Guess I better get some more stuff in my inventory that he wants. I miss that little wooden wonder. And I wants a doll!
