So my local comic/action figure shop, recently bought a guy's entire action figure collection. The guy was selling because he was going through a divorce. They bought 3000+ Star Wars figures, a couple hundred wrestling figures, and some other stuff from this guy. Well, the guy who owns the shop doesn't know anything about "wrasslin" figures, he never deals with them, so he let me go through them in the backroom before he put any out for sale, and told me whatever I wanted he would give me for $20 each. Here's what I got: All 10 for a total of $200. He had a ton of other decent stuff, pretty much everything from Classics series 6 and up, and a few from before that, but nothing else I was willing to pay $20 for. These however, were a steal at that price.

Those are great pickups and great addition to any collection. Too bad the value have drop on them but if you are going to keep them then you got a great deal.

$20 each for that Hogan/HBK, Champions & IE Flair is a steal you definitley overpaid, however, for the CS 8 Hogans & the CS 9 Flair $20 each for the CSDA's is a good deal too, since they're MOC. I'd say $200 is still a good price overall for those 10 items. Congrats!

since you say he didn't know a thing about wrestling figures, you should have tried to undercut him. $15 each on the ones you got, then make a lower offer on others. These hobby shop folks will generally try to unload crap

$20 is a steal for most of the figs you picked up. Congrats!

These hobby shop folks will generally try to unload poop I could have tried, I guess, but I didn't really think about it. I was happy with the deal I got. If I go back for more, I will definitely try to get a better deal, since everything else he had was pretty common stuff.

I didn't see any. Most everything he hadwere all Classics. He did have a bunch of regular Deluxe Aggression figures that I didn't look through because I wasn't interested, but there could have been some Hardys in there.

That is definitely a great haul. Since you bought each one for $20 I wonder what the figure shop owner paid to get them?
