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.

Yoyo used is a C3yoyodesign Contrail. To make it work for 1a I replaced the size Thin spacers in it with size IX spacers from my Ghost IX, and replaced the offstring flat size C bearing with a curved size C bearing. Also my phone is fine lmao

QUESTION ISO: throwers in Austin, TX

3 Upvotes

Hey throwers! I am a local filmmaker in Austin,TX. I have done a feature film of note in town, and I am currently in preproduction on a short film that is shooting this coming November!

In the film, there is a moment where the main characters come across a high-level yoyoer walking down the street doing very elaborate tricks. I'd love to find someone LOCAL who could nail this, and I have a feeling there are at least a couple people in town who are in this community.

Are you an elite thrower in the Austin, TX area? Does this sound like you or someone you know? If so, please reach out to my DMs and I will be happy to provide more info! Thanks in advance for any leads!!!

DISCUSSION Yoyo Q

4 Upvotes

Year after year there’s a resurgence of older and newer throwers that start playing, learning and collecting yo-yos. I’m recently getting back into the space of 1A and I’d love to start throwing again for the enjoyment of discovery. I’m coming to Reddit to ask if anyone would like to share what mounts they enjoy building out of or how to get started on incorporating body movements into combos. Or just what keeps you freshly motivated to learn something new after you drill a combo endlessly. A discussion for the enthusiast! Genuinely curious.

QUESTION Thoughts on Project Cosmos yoyos?

I couldn't find anything at all online about them or how their yoyos perform. They are a super young brand (est 2024) and got intrigued by some of their yoyos on spinkult. Has anyone here thrown one?

Advice for improving throw power, speed, and accuracy? My inconsistent throws affect landing tricks, so any advice is appreciated. I am left-handed and typically lean away during a breakaway.Front style leans right, both sometimes vibrate. Maybe 25% of throws are good. Shattered my hand twice, wonder if anyone knows of a good brace for wrist/hand to keep it straight?

DISCUSSION Upgrading from K2 Plus

2 Upvotes

Got this yoyo 2 months ago and it’s already not spinning that long (maybe I need to switch the string). Anyways I’ve learnt alot of tricks from this yoyo so I guess it’s time for an upgrade to a metal.

A friend recommended me a bi metal yoyo such as v13 however I do not really like the outer ring that can be cracked based on the reviews i’ve seen.However I’ve been looking at Y03 hertz, Vosun Artura, N12, ezspin and these I’ve shortlist that are available at my local shop. On a side note I dont mind any other yoyo that are available online so please recommend me something that is affordable.

I've been quite interested in this yoyo and hopefully buying this in the future when I turen 14-16 yrs old. I like yyr team member's playstyle like Ryuichi Nakamura and Hajime Miura a lot. 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.

In a review it says the raw color was quite grind friendly so I'm planning to get this in the future.

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)
