Can you send a yoyo back to yoyoexpert to replace that looks like this?

Maybe for the accidental strip but I wouldn’t have let anyone try and drill into it if you were planning on trying for a replacement. The YYE team is awesome though and I wouldn’t be surprised if they did replace it for you anyways ---

If you received it in that condition from YYE they would replace it, but if it’s something you or a friend did, I would say no ---

I’m going to go with no. It is difficult to ruin the threads on a yoyo. why do you have so many broken yoyos all of the sudden. > [@Striped Yoyo Threads Duncan](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/striped-yoyo-threads-duncan/382294/1): > > So I recentley got a new yoyo called the ducan orbital gtx ive had it for a day now and when I was unscrewing the yoyo there was a loose inverted stuck axel I got it out without any effort and when I checked the inside threads were broken what should I do > > I don’t want to get my dad angry telling him that I broke the yoyo > > pls help > > ANOTHER NOTE: the inside of the yoyo before it striped was pretty dirty and when I put the axel in it had a LOT of trouble it was also grindy as hell ---
