I spent at most like 35$ Don't go ahead and buy yourself a bunch of really expensive yoyos because, #1 You probably aren't ready for them yet and #2 It's better to start with something that you don't have to worry about dinging them.

I can't recall. I think it was over $500. We forget that even the inexpensive stuff adds up.

Somewhere around $150. If I had paid retail on everything I won I'd be about $300 more, so full value is $450. This is an estimate of course.

A LOT. I bought like two high end yoyos a month for the first four month, then I discovered the BST. Hehe, haven't bought any since, except for my occasional trip to One Drop.

YYR Dreadnought - 140$
CLYW Bassalope - 50$
BST shipping - ~15$
Random supplies - ~40$

That puts me at about 250. Let's see how the second half turns out. Maybe I can manage my money a little bit better.

Over $500 but that included a case and accessories. You really are better trying out a few affordable throws to figure out which dimensions and weight are best for your style. Look around here for trades and used throws to save a few bucks and then once you've gotten better you can invest in some good metal throws and you won't have to worry as much about damaging them.
