Totally.

Detailed descriptions are far better than simple labels like “mint” where there is too much room for disagreement.

FUBAR. That acronym means New in box. Plays great but has never been thrown.  
Comes from a limited one batch edition of 2000 yoyos.  
No anodizing flaws… because it is not anodized.  
Only vibes a little when you throw it.  
It’s my favorite yo-yo. So you are going to have a really really high cash offer to get this out of my hands.  
Friends and family only.  
Only missing axle, bearing and response pads.

Tubes of dimes only.

And only 49 dimes per tube.

50 is my unlucky number

Pack the dimes in peanuts.

Any dimes arrive damaged, deal cancelled.

Send by registered overnight mail for morning delivery.

Thanks

The more we spread it, the more widely accepted it can become. Maybe even becoming the standard.

I’ve seen so many people say MIB when the yo-yo is out of the box. This needs to be bumped again.
