Is $170 a good price for this? SPYY Flying V, MIB ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/1/9/f/19f4815471f76bd7df3910e8274b37822f604a3d.jpeg) ---

> [@BenM36](#): > > SPYY Flying V, MIB Argee with the above pricing. What makes the V more unique is that it is an @edhaponik signature and he is still very active and has a lot of fans. The colorway is also reminiscent of Eddy Van Halen’s guitar 🎸. 170 may be on the highest end, maybe more around $130 highlighting the other factors might give it more perceived value, do you also have the extra bearing and pads? These could also be set up responsive. ---

I mean I wouldn’t part w mine for that, so… to me it’s a pretty good deal! 🎸 Honestly, I think it’s rad that you have that yo-yo. Definitely one of my favorites I’ve ever been involved with.

Anyone have an idea what a mint purple/black halfswap (1/1 or 1/2) ano-test Grind Mutant 2 would go for these days? I think it has a “certificate of authenticity” or some paper saying what it is since it was auctioned off back in May 2020 IIRC. No pic currently since it’s on the other side of the country from me, just curious since i’m in pare-down mode. ---
