Puzzler’s Desk by Steve Read – Hua Cao Shu Mu – 300 pieces
Ugh. This puzzle sucked. I would enjoy doing this image put onto a quality puzzle, but on this crap-tastic thing wasn’t any fun at all.
I have a bad attitude about it, admittedly. But it is what it is, this is my blog and I’m expressing my feelings. Here they are – if you see puzzles that are so friggin’ cheap that you can hardly believe it, there’s a reason and you should run away. I didn’t purchase this new, it was bought second-hand at a thrift store, so at least this company didn’t get any of my hard-earned money, but it still ticks me off.
Also, I know for a fact that these companies steal these images and the artists get no compensation at all, which makes me even more upset. It shouldn’t be easy to get away with theft like this, but unfortunately it is. It’s depressing.
This puzzle sucked. End of story.
I have this one in a much better quality brand– Buffalo I think if you ever decide you want to do it again.

I agree about the theft of artwork. It’s unconscionable. I had toyed with buying this image in a Ravensburger (1,000 piece) puzzle, and then in a Wentworth when it came out. It’s too bad about your puzzle. -Di

Thanks Di. I know if it were a Ravensburger or a Wentworth that the artist was compensated, but this was obviously stolen and it’s truly horrid in my book.
