This may be true -- or an urban legend...
I heard someone approached duncan yoyos and asked if they had any distribution in Japan. They said no. The guy then asked if they would give him exclusive distribution in japan. Duncan, figuring they had nothing to lose, granted the request. The guy then set up yoyo contests and classes all over japan -- making yoyoing a HUGE (and I mean HUGE) sensation there. The legend goes that he quickly made 80+ million dollars.
Again, I don't know if it's all true or not -- but it sure is a great toll position story!
