Yeah, I honestly don't see it being that much. It's a very rare item that "very" rarely pops up on ebay. The seller COMPLETELY lucked out when he won this figure & another from the set for only $2.99 (a complete steal!). Considering, I paid 25 times what he paid and considering I once had & sold mine for well over $100 -- I think it is well worth it. Thoughts? cgi.EBAY LINK NOT ALLOWED/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=330256050932&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT&ih=014 Question: I was just wondering if anyone else on here has anyone from this series. I don't know of many that do but I'd like to.

Well, congrats on buying what you wanted, but I certainly wouldn't have paid that much for a Bend-Ems figure.
It is a very valuable piece, though, and I still can't believe how lucky this seller is as far as finding good deals and flipping them for crazy profits.
Edit: Oh, and the rest of the series included Grandmaster Sexay, Tazz, Rikishi and The Rock, which was a re-release from the previous series.

I never saw any of that series in stores anywhere. A local comic book shop has the Rock figure for $50....always think about picking it up

I think it is a good price for it. I have seriously been looking for one under the $75 mark for around 3 years. Just missing Scotty, Rikishi, and Grandmaster to complete my set. Good buy on a super rare figure.

What did he end up selling Grandmaster Sexay for? Or hasn't he listed that one yet?

Amazing how someone who was simply in the right place at the right time was able to turn 6 bucks into $125.

The thing is -- that is their true value and many people are willing to pay for it (especially me). I'm just kind of down that a seller such as onemoretocome won them because I knew he had knowledge on them before hand and that he was just going to buy to re-sell them once he won them.

I have this figure. Last few series got extremely hard to find. I think Kmart Family Dollar and Dollar General picked up the last few series from what I saw.

Only Series 15 is worth good money. It was the only set that was very hard to find & for many, people never knew this set existed. Has anyone actually seen these in stores at one time or another?

Well, as you can see, I have some rare items in my collection, but how you could bring yourself to pay $82 for a Bend-Em is beyond me, even considering it's rarity.

That is horrible you spent $82 on that? Must be nice to just throw some money around.

People are throwing around money for that when half of them won't be worth as much as you paid. Justoys Bend-Ems Series 15 is one of the most difficult to find wrestling figure sets ever. You can "almost" call it close to impossible to find. It will take years for most just to complete the set. Almost every other wrestling figure/series although rare & hard to find -- aside from just a few -- you will find on eBay with no problem. This is different -- hence why it is worth every penny in my book.

The Hardyz and Jericho were also some hard ones to find along with the set that had Triple H in his short attire and Kane in reverse colors.
