Can someone please give me a hint about how to decipher the text in the clues? I am completely stumped ???
Hint: Stonemason’s handwriting.
Who’s to say it is really a pocket throw. nobody will really know till we get them. everybody could keep saying pocket throw it could be oversized for all anybody knows.
Yeah. Who knows. Could be Cargo pocket sized.
Ok, I bit, I ordered one… now I can’t wait… haha.
Do you honestly think they would lie about that?
It’s like them saying they made a 7075 aluminum throw, and in actuality, its made with Mostly 6065.(Ok maybe not this bad…)
Also, I am now almost confident it is a popstar.
I’ve asked them twice if it was, and Havent recieved a response.
I then Asked If it would be a G-Funk, and sure enough, they responded this time, saying no.
What other reason would they reject my inquiry on wether it was a popstar or not? Maybe it is a popstar? Maybe something very similar?
I read this entire thread thinking “you know, theres ALOT of different sized pockets.” lol why think of the size of the “pocket” throw, think about the size of the pocket right? lol

Never said it wasn’t but what is a mystery box if everyone knew what it was before getting it. they want people to think they know what it is then when it arrives it’s totally different. That’s what a smart company would do.
Lieing to your customers doesn’t seem to be the best marketing strategy to me…
But about the pocket thing, I’m not sure wether you guys are serious or just joking xD
But based on their Ask.fm answer, it didn’t seem that there was any kind of word play on the size(Sounded pretty definite that it would be a pocket throw(As in jeans pocket(Regular sized jeans(On Earth) I think the important part is that “it won’t break your heart if you lose it at the WYYC After Party”. Prob a Budget throw?(Hint Hint, Popstar)
I don’t know why they even keep asking questions, I asked 2 first questions about 2 yoyos it could’ve been, and they responded, they probably shouldve stopped after that really xD
How are they lying they didn’t say it was anything specific. It’s called they are trying to get you thinking and guessing. For all you know the person that claimed it was a pocket throw was laughing after they said it. It’s called distraction. …
and why does anybody believe anything they are saying it’s a mystery box.
I have an insatiable feeling that it’s a G-Funk…
I know that a G-Funk is $54.99 HOWEVER, for some reason YYE recently marked the G-Funk down to $40.00…
Why $40.00? That’s a $15.00 drop. And it happens to be under $45.00
But hey, what do I know.
G funk is a sig for gentry stein, no?
awwwwwwwwwe youre right! my bad, but still wierd
Aha, some real meat in this conversation!
What do we have so far for the mystery throw? A $85 ERV, and performance that belies that asking price.
Now, I’m not too familiar with YYF’s “recent design trends”, so what moves have y’all seen coming out of Arizona? edit to add: Uncommon materials? Hybridizing? A new playstyle to support?
edit 2: nvm, I found the clue deciphering thread. TLDR: Lots of data, not so much information. LOL
Arizona FTW
(“Arizonan” here.)
No they said the unreleased yoyo is not $85. Thats just the value of the mystery pack. My Guess $60 plus the $25 for the popstar. I don’t think they would sell a yoyo thats worth almost $90 dollars for $45 then throw in extras. Itll probably be in the budget range of 50-60.
If they gave away 488 at $85 ERV they would be losing $19,520. the popstar giveaway cost would be about $12,200. and they will be making $21, 960 of the the mystery pack.
Now It would seem they would be losing money anyway you cut it. More so, they would be losing profit. It probably costs about half retail for them to make it. If that much. Since, yyf goes through china now, theres no taxes and cheap labor. They might also be trying to get rid of popstars, I dig the one I got. but it was just five bucks thrown in a trade.
Anyone remember the worlds 2010 yoyo?

Good point!
I hope it is a popstar. Miss my old one. Great to leave in my desk at work.
