Collection Giveaway - FREE***

Hi! My name is Aaron Russell. Years ago, I was involved in this community and loved to yoyo. As I got older and more involved in sports and other high school activities, I lost a passion for yoyoing. Now, as I graduate college and prepare for another move, I am looking at my yoyo collection yet again.

And I want to help someone. I remember being a kid and saving up all my money just so I could get a new yo-yo. I remember the days of buying and selling and trading on this very forum. I will never forget the feeling of opening that mailbox and seeing the package with your new yoyo inside.

So I am giving away my collection. If you are financially capable and would like to purchase an item, then by all means, make an offer. But if you aren’t able to purchase, all I ask is that you cover the cost of shipping. Everything is up for grabs. Send me a message if you do want to purchase something.

Below is my entire collection. Each of these are probably going to need a good bearing clean (I recommend buying a new one), new response systems, and other maintenance. Most are in good condition and still play well to my knowledge.

YYF Whip (no response system):

GONE********** Duncan Raptor (honestly one of my favorite 5a throws):

Duncan Echo (2011 World YoYo Contest Edition):

GONE********* Custom Annodized YYF Genesis (don’t remember who designed this but he did an excellent job; this yoyo looks so classy; needs a new response system and it uses the larger response pads):

GONE******** YYF Supernova Lite (this thing is light and plays super fast; great for 5a):

GONE******* YoYoJam Axiom (I honestly don’t remember anything about this yoyo):

YYF Sterling Quinn Genesis (a seriously beautiful colorway and plays great; I believe this is pretty rare with only 100 ever made):

GONE******* Big Brother Yoyo Juvenile Offender (this thing is awesome; I remember this being one of my favorites):


Bunch of dice (clear die gone; translucent still available; original duncan):

Good ol’ classic YoYoExpert yellow string:

Fair game! Message me if you have any questions.

No rules! If you are able to buy, then just make an offer. If you aren’t able to buy, just cover the cost of shipping! Like you said, just be mindful of the less fortunate. I’ll trust your integrity.

I love the Raptor! It was a complete surprise to me at how much I ended up liking it!
In today’s standards it’s considered undersized…that coupled with it being an organic and it feels GREAT in the hand!
I keep my caps on mine which gives it a bit of vibe…but I love the way they look with the caps and the cool hollow feeling it gives the yo.
A real gem of a yo IMHO!
Big congrats to whoever gets this Raptor! I really think you’ll enjoy it!!

How very kind @aaronblakerussell. I’m pretty sure I remember you from back then. :slight_smile:

Also, I think the gold/black Genesis is a vendetta ano job. I remember seeing that thing years ago.
