This is something that has been bothering me ever since i saw it but has any one noticed that they raised the price of there figures its now 26.99 just for one elite when it used to be like 22.99 and i know its not that much they raised it but still can't they just keep it the same this is why i buy figures in a store because they are not as much and i know im acting kinda greedy but why did they raise the prices of there figures?

Maybe their costs have gone up? Also, they have to sell the popular figs for more because they end up selling a lot of the unpopular ones below cost (look at the deals on their sales, figs for sometimes 5-10 below retail).

The initial wave of orders are more than when they are readily in stock due to supply and demand. They get a limited shipment on the initial preorders well in advance of any big box or their online retailer having the product in stock hence charging more. It's business 101.  |

If people weren't willing to spend the extra money for the convenience then Ringside wouldn't have been in business for as long as they have. Personally, I don't mind spending a lil extra to get the figure months in advance and to have them arrive at my door.

Well you have to knock 2-3 bucks off that because they always give at least 10 percent off.
I don't mind the figure costs, it's always the shipping that makes me apprehensive. I can't tell you how many times I've had one figure in the cart and then backed out because the shipping costs.
