I knew I should have taken yoyo collecting more seriously 10 years ago. So many high dollar throws now days I could have bought back in the day.
I must say I just do not get this type of “collecting”. Are any of these yo-yo’s any good? If not; then what is the point in acquiring them? To look at them on a shelf?
Not judging; just truly puzzled.
It is same with supercar and antique collectibles items, you don’t really need an object to be highly functional to use it but it could be a part of the decoration.
The price is sometimes determined by how much a person wants an object and how rare it is, this could be the same to yoyo as well.
I have a Yomega Firestorm that I will never get rid of. It’s fairly miserable to play with, but I like looking at it and remembering what it was like to get one in a Happy Meal 20 years ago. The other, more expensive collector’s items that I own are similar. They remind me of a time or a place that meant something to me.
I am not sure I understand the metaphor. Which lemons have become valuable as ‘collector’ cars? Who collects cars because of the paint?
Maybe you guys are collecting anodized art?
Pin striping on Low riders… people pay way more money for 80/90 cars with custom paint jobs from specific artist
@YoyoGeezer Pretty much collecting the anodizer’s artwork at this point. I like having unique and (in my opinion) visually stunning pieces in my collection. Unfortunately these are very difficult to find, hence the larger than standard offer.
