How do you compete with all these companies manufacturing in China? Their yoyos are made more accessible due to low costs, so how do you keep up with good sales?

Great question. It’s not easy. Chinese yoyo making has improved over the years and has become more accessible (they do small runs and OEM).

Having our own factory sets us apart which helps keep us around. Really what keeps us around is you all. If you keep deciding you like what we do and you like that we do it in our own factory and continue to support us, then we’ll be here. We think we offer something different and so far we are blessed that enough people agree and support us. Thank you!
