...........i am from an older generation....... so i am a bit surprised when i see a lot tops being 'sold' on Massdrop.
...are tops the new thing? .........do you young guys carry them about to impress women?
........under what circumstances do you pull out a top and start to spin it? ..
leonidasHi leonidas,
I'm sure you realize that tops aren't a "new" thing, but the pocket sized variety have certainly taken off over the last couple years. Many people (including women) collect them. Some collect them for the artistic value having large collections that live on a shelf somewhere. Others carry them daily, which is what this top was designed for. Personally, I spin tops most frequently at my desk, but others take them with them to bars, restaurants, etc. For some, tops and other fidget toys are a good stress reliever that help them to calm nervous habits. Each person has their own reason to be into tops, so I can't speak for everyone, but I can tell you that they are very popular these days.
Curious why you put 'sold" in quotes. Do you not believe they are selling?

leonidashello chris,
thank you for your response and the information.
.....the reason i put the word sold in quotes is because i didn't know if being on Massdrop i should use the word 'sold' or 'offered' or 'available' or something else.... ...no slight intended....
leonidasPeople also carry pocket tops to keep a grip on reality, at least I do. It's a crazy crazy world.
