Well Dragonegs, I think you’re looking for the wrong person. 
I’d like to see anyone quote where I said a colorway was the single reason I passed on a throw. :-\ If you can find that quote…I sure had an off day.
I have recently posted that I own 10 Dingos, and mentioned that some of them I bought in colors you guys know I don’t usually like…green and orange. So, in fact, I have posted evidence to the contrary. So, that proves that while color is a consideration, and a strong one, it is does not dictate my purchases 100%.
I also recently posted that I didn’t buy a Pride because of the colorways and because of the specs. So, while color is a consideration, and a strong one, it is not the sole determining factor of why I would pass on a throw. I also recently posted that I passed on the Ape X. The reasons were not just the color, but the shape too.
So, as you can see from the evidence above (mostly posted in the “yo-yos passed on” thread), what the OP stated does not describe me at all. In fact, I buy yo-yos based solely on the color of them. I am the opposite of what he describes. I don’t pass based only on color, I buy at times based only on color (YoyoExpert Editions).
But, even if what he said was true as it pertains to someone else. Or, if he thinks buying based on color is ridiculous. Why would I care what he thinks? Should someone who doesn’t even know him outside of a username be offended at what he thinks? I guess a simple reply is who cares? But, he seems genuinely interested in why people think color is important, and other people have intelligently articulated those reasons to an extent that I am satisfied with.
I don’t walk in the store to by a shirt, and not consider what color it is. I bought everything I own and considered the color. My refrigerator, my stove, my couch, my clothes, my car, and…my yo-yos. And yes, I will pass on a refrigerator that doesn’t match the stove, and a couch that doesn’t match the walls or floors, and a car that has a color where dirt shows too easily, or clothes where the color doesn’t match well with my complexion. So, as stated, color is reflective of your personality, your options, and your individuality. If color didn’t matter at all, you would see every yo-yo in it’s raw state. Color, shape, weight, all of it influences purchases.
Already stated eloquently by the others. And, good job on that folks.
T.A. 
When you spend a lot on something, it should be a color you like…and for whatever reason. There are some things I will not buy with color on them. For instance, almost all of my guitars don’t have paint on them. I think they look better in natural wood.
