I’d like a Grail. I’d like to pay you cash for yours.
Yoyos are worth what people will pay. Nothing more. All yoyos mint with acceptable machine marks (wooden yoyos). Cash offers preferred, trades accepted.

I’ve never heard of the Apollo. Is it fixed axle, and how does it play compared to the No-Jive?
Danny,
The Apollo, Atlas, and Blackbird are all fixed axle (and not take-apart). They were manufactured by BC/What’s Next, which is the same company that makes the contemporary No Jive.
A lot of people feel that the laminated woods (like the Apollo) are better balanced than normal woods. I think they’re heavier, as well.
I would say that the Apollo plays comparably to the No Jive. Maybe better. Just have a paperclip ready to fish out knots!
