Really great job! The more people in this community the better. But you should have told them to go here if they wanted to buy a yoyo. 🙂 ---

Sadly. I’m in 7th grade, and only the 6th graders are intrested. But I got 2 people to buy one, and 2 others looking for one. The problem with the 2 other people is that they can’t buy online. So that means they can’t get anything from my location. 😢 I want to give them something, a journey, but I spent everything on a DM, and saving for a metal. ---
