Those are good Starter yoyos for “Wood” Fixies.
Cant beat a $3.00 Duncan Butterfly either.
Have fun.

I’ll also note a good old fixed axle Duncan butterfly. Metal axle fixie. The rainforest site has purple exclusive and the bullseye store has pink.
Also a proyo is neat it’s a looper plastic with a wood sleve
I can’t think of other cheap fixed axle yo-yos at the moment but there are a handful of options
You can also glue a spare bearing and make it a fixed blank for any yoyo or buy bearing blanks from luftverk or ZGRT depending on size you need. There are also a few folks that make wood blanks
Ohh shoot Tom Kuhn also has a cheap fixed axle the woody is iconic wooden looper.

I got the Yomega Alpha Wing recently, I’d recommend it at as a very inexpensive plastic fixed axle yoyo.

I do actually have a cheap model make called the Skinflint. They are $45 shipped to the US. It’s actually pretty decent. But being in the US, you could source a good fixie locally very easily.
Edit: also, I’m so far behind with orders that I can’t really make you one anyway. I shouldn’t have metioned it.
