So a few minutes ago ( ;D) I was playing with my Yoyofactory Tactic and the K-Pad actually fell off during play! I’ve had it for about 3 months. Is this a factory defect? Or just something that happens when the K-Pad has worn out?

Not trying to discourage you from posting, but please either use the thank you button or just simply move on instead of leaving an unnecessary post. Thanks.

Ok I want to order new K-Pads but Yoyoexpert only ships with Priority Mail (5.50 to where I live). Is there any kind of cheaper shipping for smaller items? I just dont want to pay twice the original item for shipping

I was in a similar situation, I don’t know if money is a big issue or not but I got around that by ordering 3 sets instead of just one, it still comes to only around $11-12.

Buy bulk if you know that you are going to use a yyf yoyo for a while.  
I ordered ten sets with my 888 about a year and a half ago, and I’m still going good.
