Next time go for the derailment…you do it like no other and it’s always informative and entertaining. I feel you though I’ve missed out on the past 3 g2drips cause of the caching issue and the 503 error or whatever…so seeing clowns like that bugs me a lil more than usual.

hah! thanks man, i appreciate that… not sure if yye catches 503 errors, but i haven’t had any…

@TurdFerguson69

If g2 was truly genius they would be the ones selling it. Obviously not on an account linked to them.

I understand the hatred of people flipping but it’s going to happen and it helps drive the market. I hold no beef against it honestly.

Lets think about it if every limited g2 went to a collector. The first bunch would sell out instantly because people love them but if you never saw them sell over retail in the coming months/years you would wonder if you need to jump on it in the future. Someone has to be the first to list over retail and if this sell it’s honestly great news for future limited releases of g2.

as for this, it doesn’t matter to me either way. the overall market will determine the value, not one or two spikes. just because there’s a couple of pieces, doesn’t mean it’s going to be worth anything… just like if there are too many.

the tivayder is a great example… anyone selling a tivayder less than retail, regardless of color, is out of their mind… it’s a friggin titanium yoyo… that’ is completely awesome! i can point to 20 aluminum monometal yoyos that are worth twice their value right now… then keep going… that were produced in the hundreds… 12 yoyos are sleepy seeds… even if they look cool

[TurdFerguson69 (Levi Neal)]

I don’t know what sleepy seeds means and google told me eye boogers. But I don’t think this yo-yo will sell for this and was just using it as an example. I could be super wrong on that. However I think on a run of 12 a single sale could really impacts how the other holders see the value of theirs especially if it’s on eBay where it’s visible. This yo-yo doesn’t have the significance to break the 200 barrier by any means.

[d4nnyb0yy (FSYB Mod.)]

Lol it was just a random number and we happened to be talking about g2 homeslice…I’m well aware that Jake isn’t gonna produce yo-yos on a scale like that…common sense brother. You coulda figured that one out.

[d4nnyb0yy (FSYB Mod.)]

See I’d say it’s the reviews and the people talking that are gonna be more of an influence, not the number made. Now, that’s not to say that the number of yo-yos made won’t affect the price, but reviews, and other manufactures, and pros all saying the same thing(assuming it’s positive) will cause the price of a yo-yo to go up faster, in larger increments, and in most cases actually be worth it…try and buy an O.G. Noctu…

[fatguysnacks247 (FSYB & FairTradeYoyos)]

sorry bud… i speak in mad metaphors sometimes… sleepy seeds, a pisshole in the snow, a drop in the bucket…

and you’re exactly right… but… who made the design? edit: ruan johnson

[yoyodoc]

Hundred dollar yoyos should cost a hundred dollars…

And then maybe a few years down the road; somebody will pay over retail if the yo-yo turns into a must have…

Until then; when yoyos are deliberately released in tiny batches. The Urgency of having to have one, is just in your mind.

FOLO… Fear of losing out.

When fear controls your decisions; your wallet will be Forever thin.

I see nothing wrong with a thieving pirate selling off his booty.

that’s mine

it’s on here too

@fatguysnacks247

who makes 12 yoyos when there’s a demand for more than 12 yoyos

It has the opposite effect on me. Companies that do this could make the best yoyos in the history of yoyo, I have no desire to play into the fear of missing out game.

[d4nnyb0yy (FSYB Mod.)]

I know, I just cropped it so peoples personal info wasn’t out there, I thought that was great.

[griffin]

You got one?! I’ve been looking for one to match the Caribbean Sea life you sold me

[yoyodoc]

Good luck finding one.

[yoyodoc]

I think mine is a ‘Glitch’.

[Grendel (The Voice of All Grendel’s world wide.)]

Personally I don’t care.
This has been a problem for ever. Also if you look hard enough you will find that elusive grail and if your lucky the Gent will sell or trade for a fair price. That’s been my experience for every high end throw I own. And I want to thank snacks for being one of those people.

[fatguysnacks247 (FSYB & FairTradeYoyos)]

i try to share love that’s shared with me… also why i prefer trading, and will ‘post’ a little bit higher price… to encourage trading, discourage lowballs, and serious buyers only… a posted price is rarely an actual sale price

[Grendel (The Voice of All Grendel’s world wide.)]

@fatguysnacks247

posted price is rarely an actual sale price

Now he tells me.

[fatguysnacks247 (FSYB & FairTradeYoyos)]

it will also be case dependent… if my beans are against the bandsaw and i’m underwater but… i will do the best i can…

[Earthbound8426]

I wonder if that dude sold it. I didn’t see it on there anymore and he had a draupnir yoyo for $1500. It’s gone too. Are they really selling that much u think?
