Iā€™ve never understood why people care about packaging so much.

I get ya. Iā€™m just as excited to open a package even if I know there wonā€™t be anything but a yoyo and a string in a box. When someone orders some things from my etsy shop I like to throw in some things the person wonā€™t be expecting because I know it will make them happy and that makes me happy. With yoyo orders if thereā€™s a lot of extras it makes me happy and I feel like a kid with a Christmas stocking. The next day it all goes into a baggie and into my yoyo supply case.

Well if my tricks arnt cool enough for randoms when im yoyoing infront of a walgreens I can say ā€œWait! But dont you think my box is cool?ā€

Works everytime.

But seriously though. Its just a little flavor ontop of the experience. Sure its not NECESSARYā€¦but yoyos are not even necessary. We play them for fun. Its just a tad bit extra fun to garnish the platter.

the same reason people care about what their plate looks like at a restaurant - presentation. you donā€™t sell the steak, you sell the sizzle. if you have a quality product it will sell itself. if you present it as a turd, it shows you care as little about it as much as everyone else should.

Beautiful! What exact model and colorway is this?

The fact that your throws come in a burlap sack with a sticker stapled to it, and are still revered, it a testament to your craftsmanship!

C3 Radius 7068 Shion Araya Signature. I think this rainbow colorway was on the first run of them, as I canā€™t seem to find any on the sites that still sell them. Got this this past week from the BST.

glen,

iā€™ve used these if iā€™ve received throws without boxes, and plan on bsting themā€¦ iā€™ll put a sticker on the box, and secure the box inside. sometimes with a pouch, gift paper and bubble wrap, etc. these fit inside a 4" x 4" corrugated box, and will ship, packed correctly, under 8 oz., which is what you want to keep it under to ship the cheapestā€¦
