The excitement over the CLYWxOnedrop collaboration and the numerous times I’ve read “2013 is going to be a great year!” got me wondering: How many throws do you buy a year? New, used, whatever.
Maybe you buy every new release. Maybe you allow yourself one a year, or two if you exhibit good behavior. Maybe you sell one for every new addition you add.
Haven’t been playing for a year yet. But I’m on track to have 20+ yoyos. The majority are inexpensive plastics, gifts, bang-for-the-buck champs (C3 Capless, Mystery Box Avant Garde for example), or BST gems.
I will probably spend around $500 on yoyos and yoyo accessories this year. That’s not at all bad for a hobby I’m pretty passionate about!
Totally. I’m a big fan of film, and you can’t imagine how much some of these import Blu-rays costs. Ugh, ha. I’d say you’re doing good keeping it to $41.66 a month.
well… ever since I discovered the buy/sell/trade thing, things have gone a bit crazy. Only been throwing for three and a half-ish months now, and I currently have 14 yoyos. I have owned 32 different yoyos… but here is the redeeming part. I have only spent $263 total on yoyos and I currently have 5 clyws 3 onedrops 1 gsquared etc… So I say that is justifiable-ish.
Well, I think I just passed my first anniversary of throwing last weekend. The collection currently stands at 63. Probably about 75 if you count the stuff I’ve sold or given away.
now that i think about it, i averagely buy 1 throw every month. doesnt feel like i have that many throws though! Haha.
but most of them are cheaper plastics anyways.
I started using the BST after Christmas and so far this year, I have spent $800 on yoyo/accessories, but I have also made a little over $600 selling them off. So I’m sitting at $180ish spent this year. Which is okay with me.
Last year I bought one a month, to build my collection. So far this year I have gone through probably 20 yoyos since the start of the year.
The short answer: I’ll have gone through too many yoyos
