Hi I appreciate all comments and opinions and I was not upset at all And as for my opinion regarding the release of nickel plated run by a company that has released already a nickel addition depends ! If the company that has deliberately released an addition of a Yoyo and stated it's a special run and have charged extra for it's exclusivity then they turn around and say ok we are going to release the same Yoyo on another nickel addition run it will be rather trickery regardig the first addition that was released. It will be depretiating there own exclusivity by making the customers think that the first run of the nickel addition was a scam to get the extra bucks stating that this is exclusive limited number ect ect . It will be good for people who missed out on the first run however i think they will lose favor of people with current original nickel additions who purchased them first. Let me state this is irrelevant to the fact that I provide the nickel service so don't think I'm opinionating on my behalf because the finish I provide is different to the manufactures. So I'm just stating the obvious and I think that other people will agree . However if the company releases a new range that doesn't have nickel run then that's a different argument. Regards Ben

This is so awesome. I will be sending you a PM if you are willing to do my gnarwhal for me. As for all these haters who bought nickel plated yoyos and are crying because you will hurt the value of their precious special edition Dietz or 54....wow. I have a wooly markmont and I'm totally cool with this nickel plating clyw marmots. This is helping the yoyo community and moving it forward. Here's a story.
I bought the Jones Beach AF1 Nike's. Only 516 were made. Everyone loved them so much Nike went out and make 10,000 pairs and they were being sold for $100 in Models. Triple what I payed and killed the value. I know that I got the OG pair so that keeps me a little happy. Of course I was a little upset when this quick strike happened but now more people get to enjoy the shoe. I also know mine are the original.
I think its very obvious there is nothing wrong with this service. If you wanted to sell the yoyo in the bst it would have higher value as a special edition most likely anyway. Stop complaining and let us enjoy a different type of nickel plating on yoyos that companys would probably never end up making. I bet you guys would like to get some down the road.
If you keep getting hackled my best advice would be to get "permission" from One Drop and VsNYYC sp? since I think those are the only companies that do it. Also I can't see how in any way they would say no as they are very respected companies from what I hear.

Just thought I should point out that the wooly marmot and wooly markmont have different specs and have a noticeable difference in look

Certainly a lot better, but I can still see what appear to be imperfections.. so not perfect, but still very nice.
How thick is the buildup on these?

NO imperfections here Kyle sorry to dissapoint your negative opinions. it even covered up most of the scratches and scuffs ( maybe thats what you think are imperfections ) ( its a plate finish not magic ) thats as good as it gets and this nickel is by far the best and shiniest i have seen on any yoyo ( fact ) thanks ps. your little slogan sums you up regards BEn

The only problem I see is how can people see the difference between a special edition nickel plated P2 by onedrop and your nickel plating?
