Just out of conversations sake. What do you think is the most valuable yoyo you own or have owned?

When I was in 6th grade my pawpaw, climbed through his attic in Houston one summer while my dad and I were visiting. He brought down 2 old plastic yoyos that looked like a coiled up snake, and one was a storm trooper, he said he got both in 1979. When I was in 8th a man bought both from me for $30 each when we had a yard sale.

Since none of my yoyos are collectible or unique, I can only assess ā€œmost valuableā€ in terms of purchase price. That honor goes to my Draupnir.

Four of my yo-yos were gifts, so those have sentimental value that is special to me.

As far as valuable? Itā€™s hard to say lol. I donā€™t think I own anything that was over $100

Now.that Iā€™m an adult, and think back. I bet that guy wanted those plastic classics because they were worth a bit more? Havent found them or anything like em since.

Sooner or later Iā€™ll climb to a $100 throw.

I think you win, lol.

Crap, I own them all from my era. And they rock the #=&= out of whatever you own. But thatā€™s just me. Just did a trade with Vega for an Underdog. Iā€™m SO stoked.

My IceWoof was $80, currently my most expensive and favorite throw. However, Iā€™d love to get a kuntosh and Banshee eventually.

Most expensive yoyo Iā€™ve owned was a Masamune, I believe they were $210 or $220. Most Iā€™ve ever actually spent was $120 though. BST too gud.

Most valuable to me though is my Markmont Next. It was the first high end yoyo I ever received and it was gifted to me by a stranger on YYE who was going through tough times himself. If I had never received that yoyo I probably wouldā€™ve quit yoyoing after a few months.

I donā€™t throw it much anymore because itā€™s so bad in comparison to everything I have now but it was miles away from the YYF One and Yomega I had been using prior. If I could only keep one yoyo itā€™d be that one despite its now outdated design.
