*Update*
Hello everyone!

Thanks for all the love and support shown through the comments here on this blog!
We’re finished with one part of the migration, but more follow up work needs to be done this upcoming week.

No worries though, as we do not expect to be offline for nearly as long as it was these past few, painful, tortuous days.

Stay tuned for a rather special YoYoNation release!

*end of update*

Hey all!
We’re going to try for another migration tonight starting at 8:30pm EST.

We will be closing down both the store and the forums.

Thanks for your patience and support!

Going to start off a series of short posts highlighted some cool features of YoYonation which wil make your experience with us much more pleasant!

Part is 1 for our customers who are not from the States and more specifically, for those who deal with a currency outside of the US Dollar.

At the top-right of the yo-yo store, you’ll notice a drop-down menu. When you pull it down, there will be a list of the different currencies across the globe. When you choose a certain currency, say the Japanese Yen, all prices will now have the equivalent in the Japanese Yen.

Currency exchange rates use XML feeds from the European Central Bank and the Federal Reserve Bank (US) and are updated daily after new rates are posted. Please note that the amount you see may vary from the amount you actually pay - check with your credit cards to view their rates.

Here’s a screenshot of the beautiful B.I.O. Gear yo-yo priced out in the Japanese Yen:

And there you have it folks.

Enjoy!

Hello everybody!

As you all know, we tried to migrate the server yesterday. Unfortunately, the server management company was having trouble migrating over some specific files.  Until they have completed this, we will keep the store and forum up and running.

The discussion board is also back up. Apologies to all who couldn’t get in their daily fix of YoYoNation yesterday!

It’s been an exciting first year for YoYoNation, as we watched our Nation grow and grow with people from all over the globe. The support and love we’ve received is overwhelming, and we thank YOU for that!

We plan on continually improving our service and product line so as to live up to what the yo-yo community deserves.

To celebrate our First Anniversary, YoYoNation teamed up with Hspin to bring to you the latest version of one of our best selling yo-yos!

I believe the picture below will give you a slight hint…

In addition, we’ve implemented a few enhancements to our site:

- This blog to keep the Nation updated (thank you Shahid!)
- Detailed Yo-Yo specifications on all product pages as well as the comparison page
- A redesigned menu compatible for Firefox
- A Quick view of all products (found under the Yo-Yo Shop menu)
- A categorical view for each product when shopping
- An up-to-date currency converter for our friends overseas
- A yo-yo events page
- An enhanced invoice
- A ‘remember me’ option upon logging into the store
- A new Skill Toy forum in our discussion board with our new moderators Gsimian & Stupendous

We’re far from done, so expect a lot more enhancements to the site these upcoming weeks.

Not only that, we didn’t stop at the Pyro…expect a few more YoYoNation exclusives to blow you away!

Bookmark/RSS/Atom this page! You won’t want to miss any of these!

With much love,
YoYoNation
