I only collect Elites of wrestlers that were active from the Golden Era through Attitude Era. I budget by creating a list of all my needs on Amazon and only purchasing those that are reduced to at least 1/2 off MSRP ($10 or less). Because of this my weekly purchases vary but I'd say about $20-$30/week.

It depends on what’s being released. I’ve spent about $250 in the last couple of weeks with store exclusives, new elites, a RSC Order, and a couple of figs I wanted showed up on eBay.
I started collecting again a little over a year ago, so I was spending a good $3-400 a month to get caught up. It’s dropped off considerably since, but I do have some months where I’m buying a lot. Recently though I’ve decided to quit buying basics and battle packs, and the newest elite series don’t have much I want either.

Anything between 100-300 I'd say, although now I've nearly got everyone I want it'll more be a case of just getting first time to lines so will go down. But I also spend a good chunk of change getting older figures I don't have yet as well so swings and roundabouts really.

My collection is 95% Daniel Bryan, so I really haven't purchased much in the last year. My last purchase was a loose basic of Brock Lesnar so I could make a custom Brock from when I saw him in Detroit this summer. That was less than $10. Sooo...I've spent less than $10 in 2017 on figures (until the Bryan/Miz BP comes out fairly soon).

I get roughly 4-6 figures a month. Specifically Elites, so it probably adds up to $1,500 a year.
Do I regret it? Absolutely not.

I've probably spent 500 this year, now if we're talking wrestling merch in general... that number is higher than I'd like to admit

A metric ton less now. But I'm assuming with all the flashbacks becoming store exclusives I'm going to end up getting wallet raped on EBay from now on.

On average, how much would you say you spend on Mattel WWE figures each month? Or do you guys buy off and on? I'm just curious as to what you guys would consider a decent collector to spend? I know it's not about money to have a true collectors passion, however they do cost money at the end of the day. Generally I would say that I spend like $100 a month on average. This number changes if I randomly find stuff in the wild. When new sets pile on top of one another it can be kinda high, but for the most part I try not to pay more than $40 for one particular fig.

Can't count. All I know I spent about $400 on figures the last month, but it was mostly from the Batman the animated series line which I started to get into and some purchases from eBay to fix my wwe elites. This year I've probably spent the least on wwe figures due to my lack of interest in the line and in a way it's good. I get to focus on figures I've missed out on and also spend my time on other things like selling my collection.

$100 a month, maybe more or less if there's a drought or flood at retail.

Quite a bit in the last couple years because of the return of DM, store exclusives, and more Legends figures in general but I don't see as much coming out in the next year that I want so I will be spending less most likely.

I spent 31 dollars on an elite, unopened Iron Sheik and $20 apiece on Ken Shamrock and D-Lo Brown in October. $20 on Walgreens Sasha and $10 on basic Braun in November. $20 for Shane McMahon in September. Not too much before that.
Roughly $25 per month.

I kind of got back into collecting last summer but the last two months I spent a lot. I really need to make a topic for my October and November pick ups. I probably spent around 300 dollars.
