Taped vs. Untaped
« on: August 29, 2009, 01:04:29 PM »

I'm selling my bape in the BST and have gotten a pretty handsome offer. However my friend has a bottle of teflon tape that we  can use to tune and tape the bape. So I'm asking the nation, how much money separates a taped and tuned bape vs. an untuned one?

none?

I mean really, teflon tape is extremely cheap and anyone can tune one. It's pretty darn easy. I wouldn't charge the person any more of less depending upon whether or not it has been tuned.

You could tune that bape super smooth if you put the time into it.

You should do it as a customer courtesy to the person buying it.  Afro

no

you should not bother tuning it becayse it is always safer sending the yoyo unscrewed.

I think if you're the type of person who is buying a bape, you should either know how to tune it, or expect vibe. I don't think it would add any more value.

Also, I wholeheartedly AquaJoe - if they want it, you should do it for free. It's what being a responsible trader is all about.

Nobody can agree precisely what yoyoing is, yet everybody wants to argue about it and take it way too seriously to the point that people get tired of talking or even thinking about it. Thus, yoyoing is art.
