I want to start this thread by saying that I realize a $1 yoyo is definitely not a high quality throw. I am a teacher at a school for kids with behavior problems and have a case of classroom yoyos purchased by the school that the students are allowed to use if they have any down time. They love it. Over the summer we developed a school store for which they earn fake money based on behavior and I have been looking for cheap yoyos that would hold the interest of students that play classics every day in class. The Duncan butterfly just doesn’t cut it. Haha.
Yes it is a cheap Chinese yoyo, but it is aluminum and has a bearing. It produces decent sleep times and will be great for our store. I think they are going to wear out fast, but with a store run on donations they will work for now. I bought 10 of them. Just thought these were pretty amazing for a dollar and has to share.
That’s awesome, surely it might be prone to break very fast, but it is an awesome price for what you’re getting. Maybe if I see one at a dollar store I will buy it ;D
They are from the Dollartree. These are very popular on Facebook right now. People are buying like 20 at a time.
I went to 3 Dollartree locations today and none of them had any.
Some bad news for you, maddog. Chances are pretty high that most yoyos from China, that cost a buck, are probably not going to made out of any metal or alloy, that will be good for polishing.
For a dollar, it might be fun to try, but don’t expect anything amazing.
