> [@NathanC](#): > > $55 for an injection molded yoyo is kind of insulting. Combined with the fact that they need to start selling new yoyos direct because they weren’t making enough money makes me think they have close to no business sense or are in desperate need of an accountant. I’m all for making a profit, as big as possible in fact, i have my degree in economics, but to take such good care of your buddies and teammates with free product and travel that you end up having to raise prices for the hypebeast kids who got you where you are comes off as a bit clumsy and potentially shortsighted. Such a shame because i hear the Yeti is “fun” and for me a fun yoyo is the greatest feeling in the world, but i’ll probably be waiting to experience it i’m afraid as while i have the money, it would bother me. You have to look at it from a completely different perspective. The mark-ups on yoyos that WE buy can be as much as 200% or MORE based on what the reseller paid for it. If more of those dollars can land in CLYW’s pockets, then so be it. We also have to look at the fact that plastic injection molding dies are extremely expensive, and I’m sure CLYW “took it in the rear” on that. I think right now, CLYW is looking for what they hope is a short term problem and are looking for a fast fix to resolve the issue. The issue? Not a lot of cash on hand. I don’t think it’s necessarily bad business practices, I think it’s just not looking more long term, combined with what I think was not looked at to be a long term issue. I have a feeling that after a few runs being dropped at CLYW, I think it will go to back to a distribution model but with higher wholesale prices to retailers, stricter MSRP and MAP prices and a greater effort t retain control over what he wants his products to sell for. $55 for a plastic yoyo? I just paid for one. Do I feel it’s over-priced? I have to say: Absolutely YES without a second of hesitation. Comparing the Yeti to the Rally, well, sorry, it’s Rally all the way. I also ended up paying the top tier prices for the Gnarwal 2(Red Fish Blue Fish) and AC2(28 Stories, should have gone concrete blizzard as my second choice). Clearly, CLYW likes being above the $120 price point they used to be at. When all is said and done, I do like the products so far produced by CLYW. I honestly hope they are able to endure. It would be a shame to see them go under. I really want the best for CLYW, as I do for nearly all yoyo companies. ---

I’ll buy one for sure once I can get some cash. And then probably another for Christmas along with a second rally. ---
