And you guys thought $120 for a Yeti was crazy! [http://offer.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBids&\_trksid=p2047675.l2565&rt=nc&item=261326377356](http://offer.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBids&_trksid=p2047675.l2565&rt=nc&item=261326377356) Like I get this is one of the special color ones that I don’t think will be going into production but still, $137.50 with around 2 days left on the action is crazy. But I still think the Yeti for a Peak is crazier this is still a crazy deal. I was debating on trying to pick one up on the CLYW store when there would be 5 or so availble at a time but I decided if I really want it I could wait a month or two to pick one up. I will probably try a Yeti for $40 because it’s only $40 but not sure if I will like it. I’m not the biggest fan of plastics. Please tell me I’m not the only one that thinks Yeti’s are the single most hyped throw out there… ---

And $20 for shipping…Wow! The Yeti is an amazing throw, but for that price, you could get almost any CLYW metal off of YYE. ---

Could be worse.

There is just hype for the yeti and CLYW Do you own a yeti or are you just basing this off other peoples opinions? Even then it’s still an opinion and the yeti may fit a different persons preferences more than a rally. I’m tired of seeing people argue over which is better when they’re both yoyos and it all comes down to what that specific person is looking for. ---

If you don’t like it don’t buy it honestly. I mean, OG Peaks don’t play as good as say, a YYR, but still cost $500+. Its not based off play its based of rarity and hype. I would love to get my hands on as Yeti, just for the resale value. ---

Um, if anyone wants to sell a yeti, i’ll take it off your hands for… let’s see what is in my change jar… 8 dollars? does that sound good? In all seriousness, although i do find it a little odd that people are willing to spend so much on plastic yoyos, you gotta give the guys at clyw credit. Many other companies are selling off METALS at cheaper than the yeti, and yet the yeti is still one of the most sought after yoyos on the market, despite some mixed (though mostly positive) reviews. That shows the power of having a company with such a great history behind it. ---
