Hello all I am a new member on this site as well as a new collector of wrestling figures. I own an Elite 16 Punk and a John Cena with cole parts lol. My question is since I am new I don't know what an average price per figure in this hobby is because obviously you don't want to shell out a lot of money for something that costs so little. I saw at my local toys r us a Triple H figure (he too comes with cole parts) and they wanted $19 where as RSC wanted $34. I'm wondering why even with their site their is a huge price gap. So from some of you experienced collectors can give me price ranges so I don't over pay for something. I saw some stuff on RSC and ebay I like but fear I could be paying too much that's why I wanted to ask first. I seen a Zack Ryder figure I like that comes with the belt but it's $34 so there are a few different figures out there I like but just need to know where to begin price wise. I like the new Brock Lesnar but wasn't even sure if $29.00 is you're average price. Thanks guys and I look forward to being on the forums but as I said I wanted to ask all this so I don't over pay something and break the bank (so to speak) lol

Buying online you're probably going to pay $20-35 per figure for the Elites, $15-30 for the Basics. This is before shipping.
In stores, Basics are $10-15 and Elites are $15-20.

Unfortunately, you're going to be looking at an up charge if you want any previous releases. You should check your local flea markets or look for lots online.
Big Lots is good for legends at $9.

I think you have no choice but to buy online for older figures and short packs. You are gonna spend a lot of time and gas looking for figures when you can just order them online. The prices are higher, but there a lot of figures you just cant find in retail. Unless you check very very often

Thanks for the info guys. So even on RSC you guys pay $29.00 for elites? I just don't want to buy something with a crazy price behind it. I mean I want to get the Elite Ryder with the belt and the RSC stone cold but am just seeing if a lot of the prices are reasonable especially being a new collector and seeing what to watch out for.

So i'm guessing online $34.00 isn't a good price for Ryder elite and $79.99 for a Nash figure too. Just wondering if other people collect them even with this price tag and why are other figures more expensive than others?
