The most I got was 4 last year, but usually two-three is a safe number. One during the Summer and then one or two for christmas/birthday. I don’t see a need in buying every yo-yo I see that is appealing, not to say that’s wrong it’s just not how I do it. For collectors it’s a different story but I’m fine with only increasing a little here and there. So far I’ve been happy with most of my purchases!

I’d say an average of four-five a year for me. But I think that since every year hundreds of more yoyos are being introduced to the community that people will be buying more and more. And with all of the new technology present in yoyos and competition between companies, prices should be stabilized between them and be generally lower. So more yoyos every year for everyone! ;D

I think this is the route I am going to take for my next purchases. New throws are too $ now a days…

Some might be looking for the yo-yo that suits better their style. Maybe you already found yours, and if that’s the case you shouldn’t be jealous. 8)
