Yoyo Appraisal Thread II

ok, I might try unloading a few things but let’s see what you guys think about this Summit “We Are Throwers/Tahoe”. I’m not sure I have the box, but it’s mint and yes it’s the one we photographed for the Museum.

Also this Bapezilla.2, mint complete with the denim pouch

And since I’ve been talking about RSMs, I might as well make sure these are legit :slight_smile: I’m 99% sure they are because I traded for them way before people started making replicas. Little bit of surface rust on the screws, they’ve been in a box in my basement for 5+ years!

Last one for today, what’s a YYF FAST 401k in Cold War Grey worth nowadays? No stickers on the shuttles and a couple of small dings but it’s a 20 year old piece of YYF history.

401k seem to be lost to history a bit. Even during the bigger resurgence a few years ago, they didn’t sell and I saw them just sit. Was my first metal yo-yo so sentimental to me. I’d say if it’s got dings, maybe 50?

They have popped up every now and then. All seem to sell between $85 to $200. There was mint one that sold with a Fast 201k a couple years ago for $150 for the set.

I was sitting at a table with Hans at Nats 2004 (I think) and he showed me the prototype. Absolutely blew me away, and I was first in line when they went up for sale. Very underappreciated.

I actually have a FAST 201 in the originally spinning package, I’ll have to see if I can find it.

Any thoughts on a fair value?

Anyone give me a price check on a CF003 and a Project B?

Apparently a Bapezilla.2 sold for $350 here earlier in the year, have I been out of this for so long that it’s really worth that much?! Anti-Yo-Bapezilla 2 FS

I sold one for $375 with no pouch, yours looks to Be in better condition.

That is correct and I believe that was low for today’s world. It was gone within 30 min iirc

there are hundred of 20 year old pieces of yoyo history you can buy all the time. I just buy mib 2005 DifeYo for $45. Just because it old do not mean it is rare or worth anything by default

its a 401k dinged, 401k is my fave yoyo - not popular nor groundbreaking like first run 888 or YYJ DM that sell far above retail today

do not listen to anybody that say this is $150 or $200. that is simply WRONG., disregard any ebay listing price as these are usually 1.5-2x price of actual value for all yoyo.

worth $50-$80

Here is one listed on forum by ohdavidbowie a few months ago for $65 and it look like it can’t even find a buyer at this price of 65

and here is a bundle by tempura that has it estimated value under $50 (estimating mib hitman and 4xl worth $100+ of this $150 bundle

That is the same 401k being resold lol

I think it’s definitely a bit slept on, I think it’s a better small bearing yoyo than the Peakhand which people seem to like, but it turns out I don’t really like small bearings.

Looks like VsNewton colorway

Depending on value I’d be interested.
