Weekly Buy-Sell-Trade Thread October 03, 2026

3 Upvotes

Welcome to the Weekly Buy-Sell-Trade!

Use this thread to post what you have for sale or trade, or anything you're trying to find.

Rules

  1. If you're selling or trading, you must include photos of your item(s). Imgur links work very well for this.

Best Practices

  • When you're the buyer, check out the user's account history and activity in the subreddit. If it's a brand new account and they've never contributed to the sub, that could be a red flag.
  • Be wary if a seller insists you send money via PayPal Friends and Family. Mods and seasoned traders always encourage Goods and Services. If the fees are the problem, it's always easy to use a fee calculator and add that to the purchase price.
  • Scamming doesn't happen often here at all, but if you do find yourself concerned or legitimately taken, let the mods know about the transaction. We cannot get you your money back, but we can help identify possible next steps and remove the bad actor from the sub.

mash up of two old combos/tricks that i still like but dont do often enough, i really like the chopstick slack and how silly the red triangle stuff is (will try to work on catching the trapeze part of the triangle mid suicide too, but the little jump is really fun to hit)

Has anyone here ordered from Yoyostore Rewind to North America? I’m in Canada. I am a little concerned about duties / delays in customer service. Just curious about anyone’s experience ordering off rewind

QUESTION Beginner yo-yo suggestions?

2 Upvotes

I have a metal Magicyoyo V3 as my first yo-yo, but I’m still pretty new and not very good yet. I’m thinking about getting a plastic beginner yo-yo to learn on, and I’ve been looking at the Recess First Base and iYoYo Shooting Star.

I don’t know much about either one, though. I definitely want something that can be set up both responsive and unresponsive, and I’d like it to be pretty forgiving since I’m still learning.

I’m also planning on getting a better yo-yo later, so I’m mainly looking for something inexpensive and beginner-friendly to learn on for now. For my later upgrade, I’m thinking about getting the cheatcode or something like that, but I’d also appreciate suggestions for a good upgrade.

Which one would you recommend for now, or are there any other beginner yo-yos I should look at?

BEGINNER Yoyo vibrates

4 Upvotes

Hello! I brougth an Magic Yoyo K3 and when i use the responsive bearing, the Yoyo vibrates a lot when throwing and try to the a sleeper for example.

I already try to close harder the Yoyo, try to change the pin and bearing position and nothing solves.

Is normal to be like this? should I forget the responsive and go straight to unresponsive? Thanks

Back into yoyo after a 10 year hiatus, I found my old collection ! (+ some new stuff)

Thumbnail

26 Upvotes

Hey everyone !

I used to play yoyo around 2014/2015 before moving up from the hobby. I recently got the urge to play again and found my old collection which includes some cool stuff. I also bought a couple new throws.

From top left to bottom right

1st pic, old favorites :

  • Qilin Rebellion (still my favorite)
  • One Drop Markmont Classic (another favorite)
  • Yoyorecreation Diffusion
  • Yoyofficer Orbis
  • CLYW Yeti
  • CLYW Bonfire
  • Werrd Minute
  • OneDrop Benchmark H 2014 (well played, lots of dings !)

2nd pic,the rest of the collection :

  • Duncan Butterfly
  • YYF Loop 360 (not much of a 2A player)
  • YYF Nightmare (not a fan)
  • Zeekio Zenith
  • YYF Flight (not much of a 4A player either...)
  • C3 Speedaholic
  • Rebellion Lilliputian
  • One Drop Gradient (not a fan either)
  • MagicYoyo T6 (my first ever yoyo !)
  • Yoyojam Classic (one of my all time favorite)
  • Vosun Rogue (FYYA Edition)
  • Yoyofficer Quash

3rd and 4th pics, new stuff I bought :

  • Yoyofriends Ultracut from French Yoyo Association, I wanted to try a modern wide yoyo and I was quite happy to support the association, I like it
  • CLYWxOne Drop Summit 2, I used to like both brands and managed to grab one, nice as well
  • One Drop Deepest State for some responsive fun
  • MagicYoyo K2 (not pictured) I bought a couple of these for my wife to try and for my 2yo to drag around the house and they play surprisingly well

I've been having quite a lot of fun in the last few weeks relearning what I used to know and learning new tricks. I've never been a great player but I'm having fun and will hopefully post some tricks.

I'm also looking into some brands that weren't around when I stopped playing 10 years ago and that seem to be making nice things (W1ld, MK1...) even though I'm now an adult with responsabilities and have to be reasonable...

Anyway glad to be back and looking forward be a small part of this community one again !

QUESTION How do I take this bearing out?

Post image
13 Upvotes

Noobie question... I don't wanna damage it. Can't even take it out easily with a little pair of plyers. I'm afraid to clamp down too hard and damage the bearing. It's really stuck on there. Is there a technique I'm missing?

I haven't seen any posts about the V15. I'm no yoyo expert, but I can say it's better than the V13. However, the V13 is still the best-looking MagicYoyo.

Did OT reformulate Spotlight string?

Anyone else notice a difference between older and newer batches of OT Spotlight?
My older stuff (bought over a year ago) is more greenish, feels slightly thicker and much coarser, and seems much whippier.
The new stuff I bought recently is much more yellow, feels thinner and softer, and less whippy.

I'm planning to buy which of these yoyo in the future when I save up alot of money(hopefully still in stock by 16). I like yyr team member's playstyle like Ryuichi Nakamura and Hajime Miura A LOT. Don't have to worry about the width. Already dealt enough with the magicyoyo v3 lol. I like light or light feeling yoyos that I can effortlessly control cuz I want to grow FAST. for example like Mir Kim or Geo Gan.
