What is your most regretful yoyo purchase?

Did that and was sent a replacement post-haste. Still felt hollow on the throw though.

That is a shame… the YYJ Diamondback is so pretty to look at.

It certainly is! Played pretty damn well too. I just couldn’t cop that hollow thump on binds. Ended up trading it away for a C3 Darkstar, YYF Starbrite and a modded Duncan FHZ.

I bought a YYF 44 and a Plastic Severe.

those had the bearing seat problem…

but those aside, the worst i ever got was a Yomega Xodus.

I bought an XodusII at toys r us while waiting for my first yoyo to arrive. It is absolutely dreadful for 1A, but isn’t half bad for 4A. I have completely beaten it up yet it still plays like it did on day 1.

I had no idea it was for 4a… I had never even heard of 4a at the time lol…

I cut my finger REALLY badly when i first threw it and tried to do a string trick…

oh well…

When I had first transitioned into advanced tricks, my mom and dad gave me a hundred bucks to support the hobby. I spent those hundred bucks on cheaply made plastic throws, most of which didn’t even fit the specs I wanted, and a single undersized metal yoyo I bought because it was metal and relatively cheap. I wish I spent the hundred dollars on two GREAT throws, rather than 4 EH throws.
I bought a Adegle Asteroid, Adegle PSG, Paul Han ONEstar, and a God Tricks Freedom. Don’t get me wrong all great throws, just not what I’m looking for. And my PSG didn’t really work because the space wasn’t put on the right way. Oh well.

eli made me to but the 888 was mint and I only got the campfire for 15 so I am cool

Mine is honestly the Dietz. Somehow it just didn’t fit what I wanted.

PSG - Had too much vibe
Diffusion - Viby and heavy
EvilYo - Got one with a vibe on a trade so I bought a new one, but the new one had different coating and I never played it

Asking for a ST Quark, bad weight

Getting an FHZ, not liking it, then throwing it out without considering modding

YOMEGA Raider, I never used it

YYJ Axiom, unbalanced

a fhz is good with mod spacers

you don’t regret the yoyo just the timing

I have no regrets

Buying a yyf mystery bag instead of the mystery box.

Anytime I purchased a yoyo and didn’t care for it, I was able to trade it on the BST for something I enjoyed.

Well, I regret getting a Mini Imperial and a Atmosphere.

I want a raptor. Haha

Delrin Severe is one of the best yoyos I purchased in 2012. I had this idea of just playing delrin Severes from here on, and I bought five of them… Two are still in the package. Maybe they vibe, but the three that I play are super smooth.

I lost a game of rock, paper, scissors and my friends made me buy a Grind Saturn. That thing is just… Not good. That’s really the only yoyo regret I can think of.

Oh geeze the recreation stardust. I haaaaated that throw.

MYY n9 Floating. I don’t hate it, I just think I may have gotten a bad one. I wouldn’t use it even if it worked perfectly…
