I do order from Ringside but the majority of my ordering is from Amazon.
I only have a Walmart and Meijer in my town.
The closest Toys T Us and Target is about an hour away.
So 9 times out of 10 i shop online.
However i did preorder Summer and the Lana/Rusev 2 pack because i know I'll never see them in my town.

Between myself and my 2 boys, since Jan. 1, 2014 I've probably dropped close to 3K.

I've spent a nice little chunk over the last couple years, but nothing like that.
Congrats!

$1867 is the total amount for my orders placed last year. Less than I thought it would be actually.

I've bought things sporadically from RSC but never $1000. They need to start a rewards program Great idea.

I just dropped $100 on 5 figures last Friday, so I can see how that can add up (and lead to pissed off wives and girlfriends for the fellow adults here).
I've had a bit of buyer's remorse with buying some repaints on impulse a few times (CM Punk), but beyond that I'm trying to only buy figures I'm actively going to use in my figure fed. Flashbacks, as a result, are mostly off my list. Divas are off my list unless they're Elites or are being used as a valet in my fed lol. I'm also trying to go the loose figure route on some, even if they don't come with accessories. I figure I can buy some vests or jackets from Ralph's Figure Clothing and save a bit of cash while still getting a superior product.
I'm also going to just outright buy the title belts I need specifically so I'm not blinded by shiny things in the toy aisles when a figure I don't want comes with a title I don't have yet lol. I'm on the fence about making my own belts from scratch, as buy a ton of photo paper for other projects anyway and I've made custom belts for smaller figs before. This would save me some headache waiting eons for a classic design to be made by Mattel as well as fixing some pet peeves I have about scale (and fit) of the belts. Mattel's look more awesome than any custom I've seen, but it's more of a hassle and less freedom.
I have a big, long list of wrestlers I want on my roster and I have a pretty clear creative direction for each of them. It's more in depth than I'd like it to be for figures, but I just can't be buying hundreds of wrestlers lol. So, yeah, Evernote is your friend lol. Once I buy the roster I want, I'm pretty much done outside of adding select talents like Finn Balor, Sami Zayn, etc.. I'll still most likely order through Ringside exclusively once I get up to speed, but I'm trying to be smarter about collecting this time around.

My first purchase from RSC was July 1st, 2014.
I have already spent $1,011.26 in seven months.
...I also need to slow down haha
I don't even want to think about adding up all my eBay purchases.

If RSC offered free shipping, I would order a lot more. If they had free shipping, I wouldn't even bother checking retail stores anymore. No sense in that. lol

I've spent maybe $400 all together on Ringside. Yesterday I bought B48 and SS Hogan from them, and it ended up being .40 cheaper than their eBay listings. SAVINGS.

Ok i just bought the basic 49 bret hart on ebay for $18 shipped (damaged packaging). Then before that i bought 2 new signature series dean ambrose's at wally world.
This does nothing but reinforce my ringside collectibles boycott. For those of you who live in a crappy area for getting wwe toys in, yeah ringside probably works for you. For me i refuse to drink there kool-aid, since i live in a pretty good wwe retail area...

I've done business with RSC since 2006. I'm sure I've spent close to $5K in that time on figures. But mainly shipping.
