How much would a yyj metalhead go for? ---

So I recently just got a Dif-e-yo Rev-1 Over Haul, and I was told it was very rare, but when I go to look up the price on it, here isn’t a definite answer. Does anyone know how much it goes for? ---

There is no “blue book” for yoyo prices. It’s whatever the market is willing to pay at any givem time. Prices for “very rare” yoyos vary considerably. Put a price on it and see who bites. ---

> [@ImNotDerp](#): > > So I recently just got a Dif-e-yo Rev-1 Over Haul Agree with @jhb8426. Someone recently was looking for one on the BST. I can’t remember who though. If you search a bit you can probably find the post. ---

Try doing a search in the #Buy / Sell / Trade category for that word, ordering the results by latest. That’ll pick up the last time someone typed that word in a BST post. ---

Some of mine. 1st shop Peaks dont have the fine ring in the inside of the cup caused by tool changing during manufacturer of the 2nd shop. Cf. 28 Stories (which also has the flat nipple) and the others. The maple drip is 2nd shop, 3rd run and plays better than the 2nd runs. The golden nugget is 2nd shop, 2nd run and is an A-grade. There were many B-grades and it was this run that inspired the ‘fools gold’ stamp still in use today. ![00100dPORTRAIT_00100_BURST20190527082141396_COVER](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/a/5/c/a5c8d2f6ba8fb19b8fb15849ac8d968e82508d5b.jpeg) ---

Ooooh finally someone who has all 3 original Peak runs! How do the OG (that flat nipple 28 Stories) and 3rd run (maple drip) compare in play? ---

Very little between them - both share the rounded-off outer lip mentioned earlier and play very similar. I’d actually choose the 3rd run for the feel on the string. ---

Good to know, thanks. I’ve only had 2nd and 3rd runs, with the 3rd run being my favorite for its feel in hand (rounded outer rim does make a difference) and in play. ---

What’s a fair asking price for a mint/NMTBS YYF Nightmare these days? Missed out on the b-grades and might try to snag one if I find it on the BST next month. Alternatively, any way to search this thread? I’m on mobile and don’t see how; sorry if this has been answered earlier! ---

I might consider a NM nightmare in the 40$ area if it was the right color. ---

That seems pretty low, I was thinking $60 ---

I might do 60$ for a mint one in a galaxy color or something. I might pay more if I hadn’t already owned one and didn’t know it wasn’t really my jam. ---

I think it’s one of those things where if you charge $60 for one it’s gonna sit for a hot minute until the right buyer shows up. $40 seems closer to me given the abundance of YYF’s, but I could be wrong. ---
