I’ve adopted the attitude that for yoyos like that, I’ll just wait for them to show up on a BST and get them at a discount. There are actually benefits to this. For one thing, it is harder to succumb to an impulse buy if I can’t actually buy a new yoyo when it drops. Waiting for it to show up on a BST helps to insure that such acquisitions only happen if I _really_ want it. This probably saves me quite a bit of money, actually. And, of course, the other benefit is the cost savings; sometimes very small, but sometimes substantial. ---

Makes perfect sense. Yes, I’d like to buy a yoyo based on the merits of its good qualities, and not based on a framework where I am not given enough time to think before making a purchase since it is about to run out. I understand, and it’s a different matter, if there really is just not enough stock. However if I see new (and again, limited) supply show up within a week or two, I start to wonder why a vendor would need to resort to this tactic - is the yoyo not really that good enough? But anyway, I’m as much excited about the bi-metal shutter coming up as everybody else. I would make this a great early Thanksgiving gift to myself 🙂 ---

That’s more on YYF than YYE here, YYE is definitely the best retailer though. YYF actually makes enough yo-yos to go around, so does Duncan. Some companies just can’t do this, other companies that sell out right away and still make limited quantities to build hype annoy me. Especially ones that are large enough to make a plastic yo-yo but still don’t make large enough runs of their metals. ---

> [@Durfee](#): > > YYF actually makes enough yo-yos to go around Yes, but the real question is will YYF make enough (and will YYE have enough) to remain in stock until the end of the month (when Black Friday discounts kick in)? Waiting to purchase should never feel like a FOMO gamble… ---

Good point. Maybe I’ll hold off until the stock forces me to purchase and see if I can get some deals. ---

Yeah I have 3 DS platinum bearings in my basket ready to go, and keeping an eye on the stock level. Also since I’m based in UK I didn’t want to just order bearings as one order so going to be adding bits and pieces (like a yoyo for my little girl) and pull the trigger on Black Friday assuming stock remains on those bearings ---

I could easily fill my cart with about $665 worth of yoyos right now (one of them is a titanium), but I’d prefer to wait for Black Friday. The thing is, with the existing stock being so low on some of them, there’s a decent chance I’d lose out on them. But I’m sorta determined to wait because there have been too many instances where I placed an order _the day before a discount became available_. And a Black Friday discount on $665 is too big a number to ignore. ---

That’s right. Last year I remember you can get 20% off for orders $150 or more. $150 is easy to fill especially if you buy the shutter bi-metal, a couple of YYSL tubes, a wangle, etc. I also plan to hold off (inventory permitting) till the black friday. Hopefully the new Edolass colorways also finally arrive in YYE in time before the sale. ---

Keeping my eyes on the stock of everything I want. I’ll buy it before then if I have to. I might get impatient anyway. Edit: I lied, Aqua Butter incoming. Waiting til Black Friday for the rest. All praise due to the Shutter God. ---
