You can browse the YYE except by price range but I am sure within 2 hrs you will get great advice here on the forum!

$50 to $60 seems to be the magic point when quality really goes up and you get a lot of good choices. I suggest you keep an eye on BST. Wait for a reputable seller to get rid of some stock and you will find a really good yoyo for your budget.

There’s a lot of metal yo-yos in the $40 price range right now, but if you’re specifically looking for fingerspins I look at the Horizon 2 Prototype. It has a little vibe (hence prototype), but it is a serious performer for the price:

>
> With a pause in production YoYoFactory took the opportunity to get back in the designing process working on smaller production and some BIG concepts like this Horizon 2 prototype! First released at PNWR; The HORIZON "prototype" needs a little more...

Other than that take a look at the Czechpoint Pivot, Vapormotion, or Metal Arrow:

> **[Czech Point Pivot](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/products/czech-point-pivot-yoyo-by-yoyofactory)**

Metal arrow! For $20. That’s the deal. I got one in the yye myst box last year and that thing is great.

I recommend the arcade or the shutter, they might not be the best at finger spins, but the are great first metal yoyos.

I’ve heard that the shutter comes with a bad bearing and since I’m from india ordering bearing is very expensive and arcade is a very nice yoyo but a bit undersized

The shutter comes with the same bearing almost all the YYF models come with.

For fingerspins, you can’t go wrong with the Cvech Point Pivot. The Blackbird is a very inexpensive monometal that is a good all around throw. Finger spins are easy on it once you know how, but I don’t know if it’s great for learning them like the pivot, as I already knew how to do them when I got the Blackbird. Are you looking for something Toybania stocks, or looking to ship from outside of India?

I thought the OP was looking for a metal yoyo (implied _all_ metal). The Vapormotion is a hybrid.

if you go up 5 dollars, i think you can buy the shutter (great, classic yoyo) the horizon, or the ND

But metal arrow, is definitely one of my favorite throws ever.

it depends what style your going for, but there is a huge variety you can choose from with 40 dollars.

why is that ?  
I did exactly the same thing, got an Iceberg with the blue rims (b grade). Then i’ve since got an Iceberg yellow with black rims. I’m still wondering why, they play exacly the the same. I’m even considering getting another. I think i’ll tell my wife, she’ll point out the flaws in my logic, and i’ll be able to put my hard earned cash to a sengoku.
