If you compare Yoyos to their peers (Models of similar shape and material), how do you choose?
Examples:
Butterfly Plastics to Butterfly Plastics.
Alu/Plastic hybrids to Alu/Plastic hybrids.
Alu Metal to Alu Metal.
PC H-Shapes to PC H-Shapes.
Alu Organics to Alu Organics.
etc…
Whats your opinion?

I value neat designs and concepts and my collection reflects that.

Other than a few exceptions, my current wishlist is filled with yo-yos that offer something unique that others don’t.

My acquisition strategy is: “oooh, pretty. I want that, she probably won’t get _that_ mad about _this_ one”

Conclusion to this poll: Even though the “Same/choice by looks”- group is the largest by 30%, it does not conclude much of anything. Not the least, because the “Unique/choice by performance”-group and “None”-group together make up the bigger portion of participants, ahead also by 30% to the single largest group. What can not be gauged is the amount of participants, who chose “None” for unrelated reasons or a misunderstanding, as a likely “error”. And a poll with 28 votes is unreliable in any case. At least, that’s how I see it.
Edited.
