The Ti-Vayder Experience

Me? I’m personally donating the profit of 3 engraved Ti Vayders and my time assembling and packaging 500 yo-yos.

The project? Last I checked and verified (which may be dated) the release stands to donate roughly $20,000, but that’s not my place to verify for certain or say.

They are not doing number requests, that would be a logistical nightmare. It’s just a number…

Has the charity been decided on yet? If not, will it be decided on before these are listed for sale? I have no doubt that the proceeds will go to charity, it’s just nice to know which one while purchasing :slight_smile:

It’s been decided :slight_smile:

It’s just not my place to share.

Despite coding saying it was going to be a good price, I was still expecting closer to the $180 price point. 140 is much easier to justify. I’ll be buying one the day it drops, probably the dark grey one. Its really a toss up between all 3 though, but I’m only buying 1. Do I have to go raw to spark it? Cause I gotta spark it!

I’d get raw if you plan to spark otherwise you’re messing with the custom ano :wink:

@codinghorror, I was hoping you’d use the same process as Heath did for the numbers, especially since he is directly involved with the project. I believe it’s called, annealing. I still like the way they came out, however.

That is a really good price

I’m hoping to launch the website tomorrow, we’ll see. It’s getting really close!

I can’t post the website URL here for obvious reasons, nor can you, but the URL is … what you would expect it to be based on the yo-yo name.

@codinghorror, will we be able to place an order when the site goes live? - just curious.

FYI: The most recent Popcast episode announces the website address.

Yes you will be able to place an order. I’ll put a note on there as to when we estimate shipping will begin, probably by the 24th. It takes time for the yo-yos to go from the Vizier Estate™ to the fulfillment company, and from there to you.

Great! Thanks! I am in no rush - just don’t want to miss out!

Damn, way to make my decision tougher, lol. I really want that grey, but I guess sparking that one would make the yoyo look more beat up. Got a couple days to make a decision I’d guess, but not sparking isn’t an option. I’m lighting fires with this yoyo gasoline style. I might even make a “hold my beer” kind of video. When you know your yoyo can make flames, why not do it? :smile:

You need to lay out a giant Empire symbol with some flammable material, then spark to light it.

I suggest the raw if sparking is your main reason, you can polish it any time to make it look just like new, although the rims will have “battle scars” afterwards :wink:

I will be getting a raw to spark as well! :upside_down_face:

Get a black one and spark it. It’ll look great and battle damaged.
