Also, selling yoyos and saying including conus or best offer but then asking for the measly 3% for g&s is ridiculous ---

Same actually, I love monos. I’ve tried vibing with bi-metals but still have yet to find one that I really reach for more than a mono. The ones that seem to hit closest to me are the ones that end up feeling more like a mono on the string, haha, or like inner ring styles that take some of the aggressiveness away. IceWoof is still about the closest that I’ve found. ---

Hot take: I don’t like designing fingerspin hub on a metal yoyo because of the potential axle bumps when the axle is over-tightened on a thin metal layer near the axle and inner cup. Can we just standardize the side effect? ---

I think you missed the point. The 3% is the smallest portion of the price and shows the most good faith. When selling an item and listing it at a price or best offer. Why not just include the comparably small fee in your price. To haggle over $1.50 or $3 or $5 to make or break a sale when g&s is best for both parties just sounds ridiculous to me [Previous page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/wholesome-yoyo-opinions-definitely-not-yy-hot-takes-pt-2/449146.md?page=1) [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/wholesome-yoyo-opinions-definitely-not-yy-hot-takes-pt-2/449146.md?page=3)
