I'm tired of Ringside! The Cyber Monday sale started a couple minutes late and literally had my items in the cart and 3 minutes later they were not available because they were sold out. How many did they have available? I wanted the sting/ hogan 2 pack. They heard everyone complaining that their Black Friday deals were terrible and they come up with a worse cyber monday. They lowered their prices to the price you get it at toysrus and walmart. Unless you want the figure 3 weeks before everyone than its not worth buying here. I like how they "lowered" their sheamus to 15.99 from the 49.99 they had before. You can buy it at walmart for 7.50. Great job Ringside

Atleast you didn't buy a two-pack for $40 a few days ago only to have RSC laugh in your face by dropping it by $20 bucks. I agree with you though.

I disagree they had quite a few good deals on there. Yea some of them might have been at retail prices but some of the ones that are listed at retail are going to be extremely hard to find or not out for a few weeks to months with how far behind some retailers are. Also i refreshed the site at 6:01-6:02 and the sale was active i grabbed the stuff i wanted including the now sold out HHH, Rock, & Hogan/Sting set so you must of not been quick enough you have to be fast with these deals.

Really can't be said any better, than this. It's all about quickness. Those who were lucky to refresh the page at the right time, were the ones to benefit most from this sale. - Triple S

The only thing I had "stolen" from my cart was the Elite Punk, but I was buying it as a MOC double anyway, so no big loss.

I managed to pick up Desmond Wolfe and Sherri Martel, as well as Shark Boy and The Giant from the other part of the sale. Also threw in a mystery figure, making my total like 37 bucks shipped.
I'd have spent like 25 in the store for Wolfe and Shark Boy.. so I'm basically paying 12 bucks for an exclusive Sherri, Giant, and a mystery figure. That's worth it to me...

I agree with Kollecting King and Triple S, the Early Bird specials were very fair, I think. It's just like Black Friday, though: If you don't get there early or in this case, click fast enough, the good stuff is picked out almost instantly.
I would've loved to get Legends Rock, Elite 6 CM Punk, and Elite 7 DX Triple H before they disappeared but I can't complain. I still scored 3 Elites, including the Exclusive Flash Rey, and Deluxe Sting for less than $12 each...Shipped! That's below retail for new figures I can't even find in stores, so thanks, RSC!

I was able to get exactly what I wanted-completely forgot about the sale, but ran up to the PC when an ad in Newsday reminded me of Cyber Monday. The early bird gets the worm!

As already mentioned it's just like Black Friday. You have to be there first. We have all missed out on things we have wanted before. It just happens. RSC I'm sure only put a select few of each item up for that price. They weren't gonna put all they had of one figure up for that price. The prices actually looked very good. Except for Sheamus but I understand he's in demand. However I'll just keep hunting in stores. Definitely the cheapest prices have ever been on Ringside.

I was happy with the sale itself. I just don't like putting something in my cart and checking out ,and not getting it. That's the only thing I was disappointed in. If I missed out on something then that's my fault. But to put it in your cart to purchase and not getting it makes you feel a little more ripped off.

Those of you who are saying you have to be fast are crazy. I had everything in under 3 mins at 6:05. How many people do you thing actually bought the hogan sting 2 pack for it to be sold out in under 4 mins? The point is they only put literally a couple items up. Don't give me you have to be fast and lucky and etc. I was on the website refreshing since 5:00 am. I actually got it at 6:02. I'm not upset that I didn't get what I wanted. I have most of those figures already. But I am upset that they advertise great deals and the quantity is extremely minute. They literally lost $100 from me because I just closed my browser. As I said earlier, ringside is only good for those whoe need to have figures (over priced) 3 weeks in advance and a once in awhile exclusive. As for the deals being good, I think not. Once your done paying shipping and the above retail value for some of the items you are actually paying more than in the store. Take the deluxe impact jay lethal. it is 6.99 plus shipping 5.75 and even with the 5% coupon you pay 12.39 total. This is their cyber monday deals. One suggestion, be patient and wait till they go on sale at toysrus and target/walmart. At least they give you free shipping

You guys will never amaze me. Do you think they had hundreds of each figure at this deal? No. Probably about 5-10 of each.......LIKE EVERY YEAR! The sale was great deals. Great prices. And RSC was nice enough to put backorders up, eventhough they said they werent going to. And you still bitch. Lastly, as far as Sheamus goes for $7.50 at retail. Awesome. Why the are you trying to buy it from RSC when its SO READILY available at retail!?!?!?!? Oh yeah......thats right. BECAUSE ITS SO HARD TO FIND!

I had it my cart and went to the next screen to pay and it wad sold out. At least I got the Hogan and Sting pack. That's the one I wanted the most and also bought the mystery figure. I'll find the Rock in stores

This is a major retailer, so they say, of WWE action figures. You are telling me they only put 5-10 hogan stings up? They still have it in stock right now but at 38.99. As for the language it is not something we should be using if we are discussing this issue. In fact i was fortunate to pick up sheamus for the 7.50. It isn't to hard to find, you just have to be patient because it will hit toysrus target and walmart over the next 2 weeks at good intervals. Do me a favor go look over their deals and put them in a cart and see what you are saving and if that is considered mega deals?

They had good deals on the figures they had. I only picked up CM Punk and The mystery figure. I hope that it isn't a UFC figure...
