Same - pretty much everything I have came from BST

I used to be! Now I’m on track to get rid of all of pre-owned throws in a couple of weeks. :money_mouth_face:

Other than like the first 2 months there’s never been a point where less than 75% of my yoyos weren’t preowned. And most of the time it’s over 90%

I clicked the wrong one. Meant to click.10% but clicked 90 instead

Only a few atm. I’m not against used, especially if they’re a good deal…it’s just that a lot of my collection has come through sales from online stores like YYE and Duncan.

NOS( new old stock) and Dead stock is where you can find some sweet deals on the classics and forgotten.

I’m in the hardly any club for now but once I’m done with my recovery and get back to work I’ll be on the lookout for deals!

I’m almost exactly the same. The only time I buy new is if I think I’m unlikely to find it on the BST.

I seem to have mostly new yoyos, but I very rarely buy any! Some of mine came from trading new stuff for the stuff I made.

I kinda blacklist companies that ignore my emails for trade offers. Lol!

The only yoyo in my collection I currently own since new is my OD Benchmark 2016 O. Everything else is second hand. This is becvause yoyos cost a heck of a lot of money.

I bought brand new: Shutter and Replay that were my first two unresponsive, and I didn’t even know about BST yet. Retic Burm and Atra. Ti Vayder (though technically this was a wedding present from my wife). Fallen44 Fixie. And some B grades (delrin Wedge and Komodo). Everything else I own came from BST or gifts (probably 20 more yoyos).

I’m here to update 4 years later. Like 80 percent of my collection is pre owned and I love it.

Initially I bought new but as time has gone I’ve either bough b grades, open box, used or really really good sales. Some of my favorite and best yo-yos are from BST and have the best bearings I’ve ever used.

Too poor to buy, but I love to trade.

I like getting from BST - but I feel like most I get have a butt ton of vibe and scratches even when they say like new
