But BMW makes BMWs and Ferrari makes Ferraris, and it’s neither here nor there, but we all know who does the manufacturing for most CLYWs, and who all uses the same ano company, and what the costs really are. For me it’s all about value for money. Can i really justify paying 50% more for a yoyo just because of the company name when yoyos made by the exact same people are far less? Sometimes i do, but in this case it’s tougher than usual… ---

Only bothers me when people think they’re priced this way for quality or workmanship when it’s obviously not the case. Oh well. Enjoy your new throws guys, can’t wait to hear about them. Personally i just couldn’t do it. Had money ready and everything but couldn’t justify it. Hoping for a Black Friday deal on the Glacier Expresses that have been languishing and maybe some B-grades popping up on CLYWs site. ---
