When my Wife saw me starting to set up my yo-yo room, she called the Institution for the Criminally Insane.
A few days later, I asked her, ‘So…… are they gonna bring the right size Straight Jacket’?
She told me she cancelled the request. She said the Last thing the other Lunatics need is another Role Model.
40% teenage years nostalgia and 60% AESTHETICS.
Pretty spinning things go hard.
agreed aesthetics matter a lot
im at 19 yoyos, though i have probably given 6 or so away
I promise my wallet i’ll stop at 20 
oooh ur gonna love this. i have the original al which is much smaller than a normal butterfly but dang it’s so sweet
I have 80 yoyos at the moment. I honestly love every one for different reasons and I actually play all of them. I’ve owned 136, so I have no qualms about getting rid of a yoyo if I don’t love it or it starts to feel stale. It does feel excessive at times but I’ve resigned myself to the fact that I love yoyos and they bring me joy. So I try to practice anti-consumerism in other areas of my life.
This post felt like a confessional

I have 84. It doesn’t help that I mainly collect loopers and 3a pairs.

Shoot that’s more than i thought
i am too afraid to count -_-
its been a year and a half since i ignited this childhood craze, now with the power of internet and being single its crazy how fast you can build a list of wants, get some then add even more than before.
I got into it just over four years ago when I was working with kids and had more money so I bought at least one in every shape category and axle/bearing setup. I currently have 15 unless you count the ones for parts; That has me at 21.
I learned pretty quickly I’m more into the flow than I am the collecting. So I usually only buy them as souvenirs when I spot one.
To many, not enough, bought my last one 4 purchases ago, all I need is one more then I will have a complete collection???
yay! I’m excited for you, you’ll love it. how do you like your rebirth?
I really like it! Good shape, smallish, seems very well made. It goes with me wherever i go
166
I didn’t think it was so many
Wish I hadn’t counted
Sitting pretty at 81. Have a couple coming in but I’m also trying to get rid of some. Trying to keep it under 100
enough not to have any idea or desire to count.
The most real answer. Some folks have online proof of the number being enough they don’t need or want to count them.
Yeah. This is my main case and it’s pretty densely packed. But then I’ve got little mini displays and some in storage drawers all over the place. Luckily yo-yos are small.
I don’t consider myself a collector (the exception being the No Jive 3-in-1). Just been around a long time. Almost all my yo-yos are tied directly to people I care about or events I remember.
As is ever the case though, it’s not about what you got, but what you DO with it and how much joy it brings you.
(I’ll grant you that’s easy to say when you’ve got way more than you need.)
Woah! I didn’t know you liked wooden yo-yos! 
Hmmm. As a rough estimate I’d guess I have around 50.
