Calling them &#8220;B-Grades,&#8221; that name has spread throughout the yo-yo world, and is now a common term.<br \/>\nAt B-Grade sales, you can pick up excellent yo-yos with mild imperfections, discolorations, marks or scratches. These make them less desirable as finished products, but they&#8217;re still great yo-yos and totally playable, meaning you can get a high quality throw for a bargain price. As a result, B-Grade sales have become very popular.<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8220;What kinds of B-Grades are there?&#8221;<\/strong><br \/>\nThe majority of B-Grades have small discolorations or cosmetic blemishes from the anodization process. These are known as &#8220;C-Types,&#8221; whereas yo-yos that are not perfectly balanced and have some vibes are called &#8220;V-Types.&#8221; Some may have both types of imperfection; it&#8217;s always good to double check<\/p>\n<p><strong>Important Points:<\/strong><br \/>\nB-Grades are outlet products because for one reason or another they haven&#8217;t met the maker&#8217;s standards for their products, things to look out for include:<br \/>\n-color imperfections, finish may look dull or scratched<br \/>\n-bearing or response pads aren&#8217;t well installed or working properly. Often, switching out these parts will address these issues.<br \/>\n-Bearings or pads may differ from the standard product model.<br \/>\n-Artwork or logos may differ from the standard model.<br \/>\n-Other issues may exist, but nothing so bad as to make the yo-yo unplayable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>YYF\u2019s B-Grade sale was a huge hit last year, and this year it will be available on REWIND WORLDWIDE too!
