I have been throwing for about 5 years and have spent about $1000. That is cheep compared to most hobbies.

I only got into throwing in February-ish and have spent probably 200 give or take some plus string and lube.

I’m around 3 or 4 weeks deep and am around $250. Having said that, I think my spending spree has come to a halt. Unless… I see some shiny stuff at the Cleveland Juggling/yoyo thing that is happening next weekend.

Bought a few yoyos, quite a few different strings to try, thick/thin lube, couple different bearings to play around with…

I dont think it matters as long as your content! As long as you keep buying and keep loving it should never matter!
