> [@matrixyoyoer](#): > > HOW HIGH DO YOU WANT THE PRICE TO BE As high as the caps lock will let me! On topic, The Dark Magic two is a great yoyo. Seriously. The Dark Magic one made history, and the second is only better. If you feel that you’re ready for a metal, check out yoyofactory’s metal collection on the yoyoexpert shop… Quite a few good throws in there. ---

I don’t know how much you plan on spending, but if you are on a tight budget and are looking for a nice bang for your buck you could take a look at the DV888. I have one and it performs very well and I only paid about $45 for it. ---

b/s/t. You can find a great metal for cheap. got a lunatic for 35, and an 888 for 36. or if you insist on buying new, northstar, DM2, dv888, yuuksta, or (haven’t really heard anything about them) one of the shinwoo zens. ---

> [@blackhops33](#): > > hspin beysick > inexpensive, great performer, completely underrated yoyo. however it doesn’t have a c size bearing and i wish it did lol yes they just got some fresh SE too. But my first metal was the lunatic. It is a great yo-yo for not a big price. Butr take a look at the northstar. I might think the northstar is better than my skyline its kind of a tie though. So ya, its a great yoyo for cheap as well as the dv888. ---

Raptor all the way!! Well for a smaller budget. It is extremely smooth, great for grinding (no IRG), comes with 2 extra sets of response pads, has many colors, and just great for any overall play. Can’t go wrong with it, don’t take it from the price, it totally outplays the price. (Wouldn’t be surprised if it was 50-60 bucks) ---

The raptor is a great yoyo to buy if you are on a small budget. ---
