I’m sorry that I came across this way. I clearly didn’t handle the situation the best, and I apologize for this. If there’s something I could do to help after the fact please DM me.

@yyfben2.deactivated see above for a thoughtful and considerate response.

I’ve created an example of a reflective, non-dodgy response that you’re more than welcome to use, if you’d like:

“You know what, you’re right. We can see how this could be misread or misinterpreted. We thought it could be humorous to spin this as something different. We will make sure to be more clear next time. We appreciate you all for your understanding and support.”

Meh I see yyf I usually ignore it but this thread has been entertaining. But yeah calling flaws “artisan marks” is basically a sin lol. On top it’s called the kapital and looks Russian but made in the USA… Shape looks cool though but REALLY WEIRD marketing here… I think this is a prime example why yyf gets all the hate

It’s like a great evil has been exposed. 🙄

I’d like to juxtapose (:wink:) whatever slight there is over this, against all the good YYF has done and continues to do for yoyos, yoyoing, yoyoers, and yoyo professionals.

It seems no different than the “crayon” edition that rso launched and no one batted an eye at. That said this throw doesn’t look like it is for me but hey not every design checks all my boxes.

We had people so upset and angry when we name a yo-yo ‘American’. We go to the other end of the spectrum and here we have upset and angry people again.

Everyone is not going to be happy with a name

Everyone is not going to be happy with art

Everyone is not going to be happy with colors

It’s ok!

We love how this guy plays. We had a lot of fun creating it. It’s a much more hands on process for us than usual and something we look to embrace in the future. It really is arts n crafts day when we make YoYos. We are going to get into splashing again which is messy, time consuming and fun and even more arts and crafts.

If the water spots under the rim were not acceptable the good news is they will sit in stock and retailers won’t order them again. The market will determine what’s ok & what isn’t. People will vote with their $$

If you believe that we need to be held accountable to our shoddy marketing practices you are probably taking things way too seriously.

Total production numbers show this is not our primary business… [https://www.yoyofactory.com/new-page-1](https://www.yoyofactory.com/new-page-1)

We hope some people can find some fun in it like we did.

Things were going so well until you said this. This thread could be a business 101 example of how not to interact with your customer base. It’s okay to make a mistake. Learn from it and be better next time. Stop turning your poor decision back on us to make it seem like we’re the unreasonable ones.

You are a business owner, take ownership.

I just picked up the Blue _Artisan_ one from YYE, as this looks like a good playing yoyo. It was priced right and looks like a fun shape and YYF makes consistent throws. I don’t buy yoyos to just trade or sell them on the FB BST, but if I did this one has a story for what someone might notice in the IRG, Its the _Artisan_ edition 1 of 58.
