What's your limit?

My desire to play with a yoyo decreases as price increases.
What if I damaged/lost it?!

My actual limit is more about my collection than the money spent; I try really hard to curate a collection of about 10 or less. It helps me enjoy what I have rather than chase what I don’t, makes me really consider if I REALLY want that new drop, and forces me to be aggressive about dropping the ones that I don’t enjoy anymore. I’ve sold a couple things that I regret due to this (PK Sliver), but overall I think it’s been working out for me.

I always to see a throw I can’t resist.

So, I guess one more than I have.

Apparently it’s 250. Just ordered a TiTANiC :eyes: I want the titanium sound! It’s gonna be my first ti. This better not awaken anything in me…

Just hope you don’t end up like me lmao, last month I spent 600$ on a 000 54SE :weary:

That’s the kind of price that I would have to sell something that would cover at least half of it to be able to justify. I am planning to move this Korg D1600 mixer for somewhere in the 250ish range eventually so like its not impossible. I bet it absolutely rips! I love my plastic 000.

Sold $450 worth of yo-yos to justify spending $525 on the 000SE. No regrets, that thing is special lol.

$200. Bought my Werrd BEEF way back for 200 after conversion to the euro and I was lucky enough to get an Antithesis from Dizzo for the same.

I’ve bought a few yoyos around the 130$ mark by now. Never feel too bad about it. But seeing 200$ + is a bit much more me. Not saying i wouldn’t do it, but i haven’t yet. So i’ll say 150 is my mark. Anything over that i’d have to really think about. My latest purchase was the yoyofriends TiNY. Was 130 i think. Worth it.

$300 so far for the Lathed Back Design Bangarang.

In second place at the moment Lathed Back Lagrange, but when my Titanium Dressel Emotion arrives that’ll take second place.

I thought it was $250 for many years, after I got a Draupnir.

Then I bought a Mustang (off the BST, but still)

mustang is well worth the price & hype imo

Most I’ve spent is $750 on one throw… Most I WOULD spend is ~$2k

I don’t like not being able to recoup my spend and I don’t know many people that would spend that amount on a throw, so if I weren’t able to sell it for close to what I paid, I likely wouldn’t spend the money.

I have always said to myself not to spend over $50 for a toy, and i just bought a ti triton for $180 :neutral_face: So i would say the limit is :infinity:

I didn’t even think that I’ve spent too much on yoyos before I happen to purchase peaks…My limit so far is 1.2k for 28s peak. I don’t think I will ever beat that number😅

The titanic is an amazing throw. Not a bad price for titanium either.
