> I think we all need to remember that this was a run of 400 yo-yos. That is not a small run by any means. The excitement was high with this release and it sold out quickly because of it. As I said in my review of it, the Marquis taps into the collector mindset that many have. Especially card collectors that love opening foil packs to see what special goodness may be waiting inside.
> 
> As for the limit of two, why? It may make it harder to do but people will find a way around it. If every store limited it to two, I could easily still buy eight by having the stores up in separate tabs and order them from around the world. Buying all eight from one store versus from four different stores makes no difference to the end result so would you still be upset that I had eight?

You could not buy crazy amounts from the same retailer if there was a limit of two per purchase. You could still very well get eight but the chances would be much slimmer. It would help to have a limit, regardless of what anybody says it would help. People that bought crazy numbers of marquis kind of ruined it for the rest of us. You can sugarcoat it if you want to but that’s the truth. Im glad you got your four or fourty , however many you got. If thats what makes you happy im happy for you. It would’ve been a cool idea if there was a limit. If one person can buy 10 or twenty, what’s the point? Thats not on One Drop, One Drop is a great company and I’m glad it was financially successful for them. I’m pretty sure its people who can afford to go buy a titanium but will never have enough to make them happy so they bought eight marquis for the hell of it.

Pink :thinking: Not my favorite color at all, but I do like the way the Marquis plays!

I like how the Marquis feels so far, but (and I’m still fairly new, under a year of throwing) it is so much less forgiving than my Urban and Railgun. Tricks I could nail easily on the Urban are giving me all kinds of tilt issues on the Marquis. Guess I need to go back to fundamentals and figure out where my throw is going wrong \*sigh(

Its not really that I’m having trouble hitting the string, its that, for instance, I’ll be doing the man on the flying trapeze and his brother, and I’ll get through the first two motions, and when I go to the last one, as soon as it lands on the string it tilts and spins out. I don’t know if its my throw, not being used to a flat bearing, or what.

This is probably blasphemous, but I swapped the bearing w the one in my first base and now I’m REALLY digging it.

The centering bearing probably helps you out.

Probably. I always used one on my popstar and thought it seemed to help.

If anyone wants to trade their marquis and is looking for a pulse fire or gradient, pm me :wink:
