@ratul got one. :grinsmack:

The toy has been advertised as helping people who have trouble with focusing or fidgeting by relieving nervous energy or psychological stress. As of May 2017, there is no scientific evidence that they are effective as a treatment for autism or ADHD.

I haven't bought, but used it in office as one of my friend got a cheap one @50.

I don't know whether it effects ADHD or not.
But I felt good while spinning it

@ratul show us your spinner buddy !
The fun thing is that the same fidget spinners will cost 10 times more deprnding upon where you buy it. Sometimes youll see on amazon and ebay for $1 ( 66 inr), Last time went to a shop and it was like $9.99. (These are the basic ones with 3 spikes)

Does help me though, haven't left it since I got it, keeps my hand busy. :bananana:

^^yeah the common fidget spinner, I too spun it the whole hour I had it from my friend, Then I had to stop it deliberalely cos my mind wants to spin it forever but not my fingers XD. I guess everyone has ADD. let me guess the , max spin would be around a minute or so...

yup, they are addictive, but I actually have HD i suppose, everybody around me complains that I destroy things as my hands are never empty, and always pickup the nearest object I could find and start fiddling with it.

The spin time of this is good, 4-4.5 mins if I spin it with all my force, normal spin time is 3-3.5 mins at average.

Fidget Spinners are alternative to Stress Balls

Holy shet, I want one now.
Do AliExpress deliver anywhere in India?

afaik, once it enters the country through the free delivery option (china mail), it's handled by the India Post guys. So, if India Post reaches in your area, you'll get it.

check Amazon, FK they are flooded with them

And also check locally, like this guy in delhi gets fidget spinners for ₹60-₹200.

^^Yes they are Made in China

cheap ones are not that durable & long lasting
buy from Amazon and look for reviews
even Youtube has details on how to identify fake vs real

Purchased this from Amazon. Chrome coloured body with brass coloured weights. Damages: Appx 190.*uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170725/7a4d501d6b7e207291161ef94de2d383.jpg

I was having issues concentrating since i had this product . I have gone wild with craze one day that a took these bearings and put on my skates. The skates wont roll proper.

Because of my mechanical engineering abilities i was able to understand that the static and the dynamic load ratings of the fidget spinners were nothing but shit compared to a ABEC 9 rated skate bearing. there is lot of run-out and balancing issues to achieve the intended gyroscopic effect due to rotation. The moment of Inertia was not enough for me, it caused a rage to increase in me, grew wild and lying on groung, looking at the 3 blades of slowly rotating ceiling fan.

I threw the spinner at the spinning ceiling fan only to have it brought down by the gravity of the earth into 3 pieces of bearings spinning but now separately as different entities.

P.S: Did not understand ? Move on Guys. This trend is over.... don't become a wannabe

Bought a Fidget Spinner from D-Mart @69
