Nope, those aren’t ano flaws. My Ti-Vayder was in perfect condition when I received it. All those spots are the results of hitting the yoyo on the floor, primarily tiled and concrete floors, both of which are smooth.

It has marks like these populating the grey side, the black side only seems to have very tiny silver spots that I can’t capture on my iPhone camera. I have walked the dog with it and let my non yoyoing friends play with it so there’s a bunch of these kinds of dings as they hit it on the tiled floor and smooth concrete floor.
