So if you got to eBay and search Mattel Elite Series 11, it looks like someone has boughten at least 3 or 4 of each figure from the set and is trying to eBay them all off for a profit at around $35 a pop. The even more sad part is that none of them are MOC they are all loose. I can understand scalping toys from wal-mart, target ect ect ect, but from an online store such as ringside collectibles now that is just sad! Someone must really need the money!!!!! Ur guys thoughts? Would love to hear someone from the RSC staff comment on this!
Peaceeeeeee

The real question is who is buying them? How are they online and not know about Ringside themselves?

Well it isn't RSC selling them. They are in Saint Paul, Minnesota. That would be one long commute to work every day. lol

thats alot of money to spend and than resell, but if they have it and people are going to buy it than thats just how it goes. Ringside probably doesnt care who buys them as long as they sell there products. Ringside also sees the profit being made and thus increase there prices accordingly.

I can't believe there are people stupid enough to be bidding $50 and more on them. I'm only buying stuff at retail now except for figures we can't get at retail in the UK. I bought Elite 8 from Wrestlingworld at insane prices and they hit stores about a week later.

spam (who I think is a member on here) sold a MOC Punk for $65 +$8 shipping!!! And that was the best offer! I don't know what's worse, him selling it for that much, or a person willing to spend that much.

That´s not scalping, the guy you mentioned has a Miz up for $40 shipped. He normally has good prices, and his prices are STILL Better than RSC. I could order Miz for $40 shipped from him, OR I could order Miz $60 shipped from RSC.

Why did you put it on ebay for a high BIN price-point then? Not trying to attack you, just curious to figure out your logic.

Not trying to attack you, just curious to figure out your logic. a member here had asked me to list one on ebay for him so i did..that was his offer price not mine. im sure he had seen the one already on ebay with bids up to $70 bucks and didnt want to wait and see if it went any higher some people have disposable incomes so price does not matter to them. if they want something they get it!

How can anyone be mad at the seller? These buyers are paying a lot of cash and you will be stupid to not sell it now for $75, wait 2 months and buy 3 in store for that price.
