Hey everyone. I'm heading to NYC in March and have got a few days spare to try and hunt down some bargains.

I'm slowly collecting up Hasbros - anyone know of any collectors stores in the Manhattan vicinity? Google has not been my friend on this occasion.

Thanks!

I lived there for four years. Manhattan will not be your friend for any sort of bargain. The real estate is so high there very few collectors' stores exist, almost none of them carry Hasbros, and the off one you'll find will be entirely too expensive. There are comic stores called Forbidden Planet that occasionally will stock wrestling figures, but mostly newer ones. I have never seen a Hasbro in a Forbidden Planet. There used to be a place in Brooklyn that had reasonable prices and half-decent selection, but it's no longer there. Your best bets would be looking up stores in the Connecticut and Northern New Jersey areas if you're willing to make a day of it.

^ You're welcome.

If you end up going to Loves Saves The Day, be prepared to pay a lot. The owner of the shop (Richard, who is a really nice guy) knows what he has & how much they're worth.

In all honesty, try the flea markets. If you're looking for figures still on the card AND loose, try Carson's Pro Wrestling World.

Most of these places are only open on weekends, though. Call or visit the websites before you plan an excursion.

Hope that helped. Good luck! Let us know how your adventures went!
