Greetings club members!

The YYBC has been in talks with club member @anon5341354 about the possibility of organizing a group buy for his upcoming unresponsive yoyo, the Flying Lemon. You can check out some additional details on the Flying Lemon here.

> Hi good folks of the YYE community. I’d like to announce here that my latest unresponsive yoyo design - The Spinworthy Flying Lemon will arrive here early next year. 50mm diameter yoyos, particularly organic ones, have always caught my attention. It’s a size and shape I really love to throw. As good as many are that I’ve tried, they have never felt quite right to me. They lack a certain feel and performance that I’m craving for. The Flying Lemon is my attempt to create the exact…

We’d like to take a quick poll to see if there is interest within the club for participating in a group buy. We would have Glen ship us a big box of Flying Lemons and would re-pack and ship them within CONUS.

## Details

Our goal is going to be to offer the Flying Lemon to club members at somewhere in the $80-$85 range, shipped.

We would like to keep this to YYBC members (all you need to do is ask) in the CONUS.

Our goal would be to run the group buy as a pre-order, with money collected in advance.

My (@TryCatchThrow’s) best guess for timeline would be something like this:

- Yo-yos are manufactured but Glen has not yet received yoyos. He will receive, QA, and offer to retailers before us. I naively estimate this will take 1-2 months
- YYBC will run a group buy after this is all done. We would run the group buy for 1-2 weeks or until we filled a certain number of slots if only a certain number are available.
- Glen packs and ships yo-yos to YYBC representative in CONUS. Estimated 2 weeks.
- YYBC representative receives, breaks apart, and re-ships. Estimated 2 weeks.

My tl;dr: on all of that is that I expect we would run the group buy in July, with an estimated date at your door in September, but I want to be clear that this is a **guess** on my part.

## Interest Check

Again, participating in the poll below is _not_ a commitment, it is just an interest check.

**Are you interested in participating in a YYBC exclusive group buy for the Spinworthy Flying Lemon?**
