Hi everyone, Arthur here. I’m creating this post to say that I’m looking for a yoyo to buy before my birthday (which is December 10th) for my 5-year yoyo playing special. The yoyo is the Yellow Fade SPYY Addiction. This yoyo is very important to me because I’ve always seen it on the SPYY website but I’ve never been able to buy one for myself here in Brazil, so I’ve started this search now for this special occasion. I’m also starting my search for this yoyo early because someone on Facebook offered me one with some dings, but I never got back to them and they probably ended up selling it to someone else… and I’m also looking now because shipping to Brazil takes a long time, 15 days just to arrive in my country and another 15 days to process taxes. I’m counting on your help and I can only thank you all and everything the community of yoyos has given me!
Arthur… How much do you think this birthday present is going to cost you? Once you add up the cost of the yo-yo and the cost of the taxes and the cost of the shipping… What dollar amount do you see in your mind?
Hello, how are you? First of all, thank you so much for asking about the hunt! According to my calculations, the gift will cost around $150. I’m looking for someone who will sell me a used one for around $100, with $20-30 for shipping and another $20 for import taxes once it arrives in my country. For now, my mission is to find someone who has one available for sale. I’m already working on raising the money in the meantime, but I want to make it clear that I’m offering around $130 with shipping to Brazil included to help me out. Thank you for your attention!
If it is of any help, I got mine (mint, no box) from the auction site a little over 4 years ago for just $90. I imagine the price will have gone up a bit since then, but they are out there.
