I think you’ll be alright man.
hopefully, but next paydate is looking like the 30th, and there were the least raws made of all the colourways… although panic is also just second nature for me
I’m not really worried. Hoping to get the money by shipping time but if not I can also wait for some to hit on the secondary market in a few weeks too
I’ll be surprised if many of these show up on the bst actually. They will likely still be available new for a while at a really cheap price all things considered.
As long as having a particular color isn’t more important than having one at all, it shouldn’t be a problem for some time to come.
That’s the goal! Put an amazing & legendary titanium yo-yo in the hands of as many players as possible for a super reasonable – some would say heretofore unknown – price!
Seriously, at $140 brand new I doubt this will be a big BST seller until original stock is gone. With a limit of 2 (is this being enforced at checkout?), I dont think anyone is going to throw irt twice and be willing to sell it for $120. If anything smart buyers who want to sell will hold on and sell it for standard price I would think. Sales for the initial buy imo will last at least a month, probably more. I think this will sell out in 2 or 3 months tops given coding’s diligence.
@codinghorror - I said the same thing on Reddit, and I was pointed to a few Ti yoyos that were sold for $140. This aint the only one, but probably the best of the bunch.
What I’m curious to know is what the value of these will be 5-10 years down the line
It’s gonna be a while til I get an answer to that question though
Which ones?
Their value will be a function of supply and demand. There may be 500 in existence, but only a tiny fraction of them will be available for sale at any give time. A smart seller who sees lots of people posting "LF"s and not many people posting "FS"s will set their price accordingly.
insert some overseas yoyo no one here has heard of
It’s really ok either way. The price is/was just sprinkles on the icing of the cake that is this project.
I’d confidently put this design against any titanium yoyo that retails/retailed at $140 or under sight unseen.
In regards to value of these long term:
I personally think that the community will eventually through some means logical or illogical get fixated on a color (and subsequently a “2nd place” color) that most people will want.
That could be wrong though.
Could y’all do me a favor? Could you ping https://www.instagram.com/bindmagazine/ and get them to mention the Vayder release? I’d appreciate it.
They said they were more than happy to do so, I don’t know exactly what the holdup is though.
Boi gimme that gray 187
I confirmed with our fulfillment person that she will begin filling orders as soon as the shipment arrives Monday 6/24, they already started constructing the boxes to get ready.
@HVizier did his part, here’s the proof to go with the pictures above:

There are still about ~80 Vayders left to pack and ship to SF but that’s more than enough en route right now to fulfill all outstanding orders and then some.
(Can I mention how happy I am that I don’t have to be in charge of shipping all this stuff? That’d be nightmare mode…)
Try again, last week we reset the options for ‘safe’ countries from DHL verified to USPS, based on Noona’s recommendations.
Actually that’s a change FPM made all on their own with no input from me, oddly enough… but I definitely do agree with it after seeing both, the new grey is reaaalllllyyy nice!
thank you very much for fixing this, i appreciate it very much!
Did not panic. If the raw I get is NOT 69, and no international homies need a proxy, it’s all yours and I’ll even ship it to you for the cost of the throw. I really shouldn’t have bought a second one, lol.
thanks man, i appreciate it. although i am technically international, i live in canada.
