I just picked one up in Cookeville for $3.99 too. It was too cheap to pass up. Yeah, made me wish I hadn't picked one up when they first came out. I did contemplate getting another one, but decided to pass. However if they're still there when I go back I may get an extra one. |

Glad to finally see a Tennessee Findings thread. I live in North Carolina right on the state line, so I generally spend a majority of my time (and money) in the Johnson City/Kingsport/Bristol area. Hopefully I can contribute to this thread from time to time. And on that note, anyone ever near the Bristol Raceway, the Tri-Cities Flea Market that's near there is a good place to hunt, as almost every visit I find something worthwhile, be it an old gem or a new one. Happy Hunting! I tried starting a Tenn thread 4-5 years ago but there just simply wasnt enough TN people here. Im glad we're getting more though. Was at the TRU in Knoxville Wednesday and saw all of Elite 20, BAF Johnny and BAF Teddy I wish I could find one of those Tribute to the Troops rings, I only need/want the helmet from it though, have no use for the actual ring (hint hint!!!) |

Kmart in Oak Ridge & Maryville had nothing. TRU in West Knoxville had BAF Johnny and Teddy......what a waste of gas

Anyone in the Knoxville area checked out the Knoxville Wrestling Store? It looks like they have a TON of stuff there from current all the way back to the 80's. I intend on making a trip there very soon, will post pics as well as any pickups I make. Wasn't aware of Knoxville having a wrestling store. where at in Knoxville is this located? Also, anyone finding anything in the Gallatin/Hendersonville/Madison(Rivergate) area? I try to hit all 3 when I'm that way since they're so close together. I went to Goodwill in Gallatin and loaded up one of those bags that you can fill up for 2.99. I picked up several Jakks Deluxes, an R3, several Basic Jakks and a TNA Marvel. |

4932 Broadway Knoxville TN It's owned by the same folks who run the local indy Tennessee Mountain Wrestling, I believe. Thats cool. I'm hardly ever in that area, unless I'm on my way to the Smokies. But next time I head through there I may have to stop and check it out. Is it still open? I really, really would love to go there. |

Don't see any of you from Chattanooga, but I can post here if it helps keep the thread active. Not many Elites period, the stores are empty. No Elite 22 here yet, Some E21 and E20 leftovers (20-Santino, Rhodes; 21-Rey, Orton, Del Rio), basics are empty at most stores, Last recent set I saw was Basic 30 at Target and the only stocked one case. Most places haven't restocked the basics in months. One K-Mart still has 7 Orton Elite 12 figures  My area might skip Elite 22, Hopefully that means we get Elite 23 rather quickly. If we get Elite 22 in late, Elite 23 will be late I'm sure too. BTW - Is anybody on here in this thread selling some Elite 23 on ebay? I bought a Taker from you if so...I think you are in Knoxville. |

I'm going to be traveling throughChattanooga next Friday. Do either of the TRU have anything usually? Nothing good usually at the TRUs here. The one near the mall off interstate 75 (Hamilton Place Mall) usually has a slightly better selection than the Hixson TRU. The Hixson TRU still has E18 remnants, no basics, nothing new. The Hamilton Place TRU has E21 remnants, and some basic 29 & 30 leftovers. I did see E22 at the Targets today in town. The Hixson Target had a fresh case (1-Sandow, 1-Tensai, 2-Big Show, 2-Kane, 2-Rock, NO GIANT) All were still there when I left as I already have these. Best places to find stuff here in Chattanooga has been Wal-Marts, but they are all a few series behind. Good Luck! |

Don't waste your time at the wrestling store. The owner terry Landell just sits there and doesn't say a word like he hates life lol and not to mention he basically scalps all the nearby stores.

I picked these up at McKay's Used Books, CDs and DVDs in Nashville today. All of this only cost me 17 bucks:  Pretty good pick ups. |

Owner has the personality of a shoe box. |
