Bret Hart on Ringside - prices?!

RSC answer will be "We have to buy these figures from the secondary market which is why the prices may seem a lil high."

They usually will have to buy these figures off eBay to have them in stock on their site. So they might pay $20 for the RRH figure and $25 for the BOPPV figure. They need to inflate the prices because of taxes and service fees.

Well for the RRH only Bret & HBK were wanted (and they are 1 per case) so they were stuck with tons of Rey (4 per case) Del Rio's & Morrisons. They need to do something to get some of that costs back for all the figures they will be stuck with for ages.

Here's a better question. Why don't you just.....buy it at retail?

I've gone head to head with the RSC crew in the past, but here's the honest truth. They are a business. Businesses want to make money, and the only reason you feel so entitled to complain about the prices is because they allow you to do so on THEIR message board.

I buy from RSC once or twice a year, and usually won't unless I can't find something at Retail or it's not sold at retail. And when I make that purchase, I keep in mind that it will cost more. There's a certain amount of personal responsibility and reasoning that goes on, that perhaps not everyone has.

I pay them more, to get the product that I want and can't get it anywhere else. And I knowingly pay more, because they have been able to get ahold of this product and are offering me the option of sending it directly to me instead of continuing to try and find it elsewhere.

I swear, we have this topic once every quarter.

My objective, as stated clearly above, is to buy a RSC Exclusive item along with another figure I've never found. Be sure to tell me where and how to purchase such a thing at retail, I'm eager to hear it.



Where did you get the impression that I was complaining about a damn thing? My question was out of curiosity. If you recall, I said I owned both of the figures that were the ones I was singling out as being overpriced. Also, eager to know how you pinpoint where I get my sense of entitlement when you can't even manage to figure out what my initial question was.



I'm more than aware of what makes people turn to online retailers, and how they make their money. As you read above, I had that part of my inquiry addressed by WWEKidCollector and PJ.



Let's pretend I buy as many wrestling figures as you, and am able to keep track of every single pricing-related question that pops up involving RSC. As recently as last week, the RRH Bret was 27 dollars, and the BOPPV was under 30, if I'm not mistaken. But now the prices have increased, and the hike (particularly in the case of the BOPPV figure) had me wondering why.





Aw, so you mean he probably won't read anything I just directly responded to either? Bummer

big debate!
