I’d become an underground dealer. I’d be sneaking bearings and string through customs using questionable means (nature’s pocket) and selling it in back alleys at a ridiculous mark-up.
If course I’d be ‘cutting’ the strings with cotton and telling people they’re 100% poly, as well as diluting the lube with water. Guy’s gotta make a profit right?
Well, you see,sir, since there is no one world order as of now, it’s kind of hard to make yoyos illegal universally. Abby happens to be an American, so she would give her national leader the stink eye. If Canada banned yoyos, how could an American rebel in their own country or even care?!
Things like drugs become illegal so the government can monopolize the selling and make the price 100 times what it would be if legal. making something illegal never cuts the demand it just tAkes away quality control and creates black markets.
So if yoyoing became illegal it would cost $100 for a Duncan butterfly, thousands for a clyw tons of knock offs gahah. string would cost $10 each and you would need a reliable non shady “string dealer” so you can be sure you are getting new ones and not used dirty ones, after all they are 10 dollars each!!! Hahaha
Personally, I support the yoyo ban. Why should taxpayers have to foot the bill for yoyo-related injuries? People can’t be trusted to make the right decisions regarding personal safety, that’s why we have seatbelt and helmets laws. Let’s not forget, yoyos were invented as deadly weapons. Do you really want your children playing with weapons?
