Found this thread idea on reddit. Just like the title says, if you were given $1000 to spend only on yoyos and yoyo supplies and had to spend it within a month, what would you buy? Also would your answer change if you were told you could never sell what you bought? I would hunt down: Fulvia BTM-R - $600? 2 Awoken Anubis - $400? Expensive jojos because it’d be hard for me to ever justify spending that much on a yoyo with my own money. Meanwhile I can always buy ~$100 yoyos down the line. ---

I’d just buy the one G2 throwers hawk that sold on eBay for 1k. That way I can save on shipping multiple items. I like to be frugal when buying 1000$ YoYos. ---

A black TiVayder (because I don’t have one) Another raw TiVayder - I’d try to commission @jasonwongzero or gruntbull to anodize one of the raws And with whatever’s left I’d buy fancy strings. I love the feel of high quality strings, right behind haircuts and new socks. ---

Would probably spend it on ALL the side effect types (only one color per type) and spend the rest on side effect yoyos that I am missing. I really wanna try all the different feelings a side effect can bring to a compatible yoyo. ---

Is this a cop-out? Because a. I have more modern yoyos than I need to play (not for lack of trying), and b. 1 grand wouldn’t get me close to all three of these anyway lol. ![25_1047_standard](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/f/c/3/fc3e18db837fac4d321a7f8ccc4b7583f659e7eb.jpeg) ![25_1084_standard](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/0/a/6/0a6838f08f7e8d0054a4b95b504c2da1d5749fbe.jpeg) ![tom-kuhn-kreeger-sons-yo-yo-yo-yo_1_79755a034c3f5064a590af20e6bb111e](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/f/2/9/f29b08f15b59439c9e0f40987e8b830ad5c6d957.jpeg) ---
