Does anybody regret yoyos they’ve bought, maybe because of the color, shape, or it just wasn’t your type? ---

Mostly just throws I got at full price rather then waiting to pick up on BST. That being said I don’t think I truly regret any yoyo I have bought. Even the ones I paid full price for, where fine, I just beat the crap out of throws so fast it seems silly to pay full price, but I do like to support the yoyo community so buying at retail is something I have too do sometimes. ---

Hitman Pro. Nothing like the original Hitman, which was exactly my type (or one of them). If I had known the Hitman X was coming years later… ---

Not necessarily bought, but I’ve regretted trading for a few. Most notably, the YYF Equilateral, the Gradient, the Dang, and the Revenger to name a few. I also remember trading very heavily for a MIB Galactic Goose back before they were even worth the arm and a leg they are now. I regretted it at the time, but seriously wish i had held on to it. I’m pretty sure i traded it for an Arctic Circle when the first run came out. ---

I think the only thing I regret is buying so many yoyos in my beginner days. If I was to go back to that time with what I know now, I would only own 4 or 5 based on their versatility. ---

Oh, don’t get me wrong, it spins powerfully and for a while as well, and I can kinda see why some people like it, especially given the price… But to me, it is just too heavy feeling, i.e. brick filled with lead in a bucket of concrete ---

Doesn’t feel heavy at all while in play. It’s only because of the extreme rim weight that gives it that kickback, making it feel heavy. ---

Anything not made in USA. Or anything from anyone who has any part of their lineup coming from China. Go watch Death By China documentary. I want as little amount of my money finding its way into the China economy as possible. Thanks to Onedrop, GenYo, G2 and YYWS for staying local and not contributing to the problem.

I’m not so sure I’ve had a “regret” like this yet. Even when I bought something that didn’t play the way I hoped, it probably looked good enough for me to keep it in my collection anyway. And, even when I got it in my hands and it didn’t look or play the way I hoped, I’ve always been able to sell it. Then, at least I got to see for myself what it was like. The only regrets these days, are passing on certain yo-yos, and still wondering how they play or look in person. ---
