I am a freshman in college so it is obviously tough for me to have the excess money to buy figures on a regular basis. I was wondering what some other collectors do to budget their money? Also, on average how much money do you spend on figures per month? Hope for some interesting answers!

$40 sometimes if there's good stuff and new figures to get but if it's just peg warmers than $0
Also I recycle and get 40-50$ and spend it on figures

Between the barricades, ASRs, and cages it's been adding up
Average: $150

Each month varies. Depends what retail has mostly.

Average? Probably 150-200
I have been known to drop half a stack from time to time though

I would say approximately $100 to $150. I tend to look for deals though or buy lots. Trade other items when I can. Have to say this is one of the cheaper collecting hobbies I have (next to movies). I used to collect watches which was ridiculous now that I have stopped. Each watch would be around $100 to $400 so I am happy with this one.

Don't put an exact number to it. As long as the bills are paid, I'm good. I work a a crazy job with crazy hours so to me it's a way of rewarding myself.

I only buy elite flashbacks, tgt hof, defining moments and other exclusives.
Sometimes I'll buy one for loose one to keep moc.
It probably works out to about $40 a month.

I've been back to collecting for almost two years and it varies. Some months I won't buy anything, others I spend $500+. All just depends on what's out or what I find on eBay. Can't really give you advice in regards to a budget, luckily I've been blessed with a job that allows me to buy what I want.

Exactly what knupmc said... It varies so much throughout the different months. I'll probably say $80 a month easily. Who the hell am I kidding, im the idiot spending $80 for one figure. I probably spend a good $900-1000 a year. Holy  . Never even thought about how damn much that is when its all added up. |

Lately not nearly as much as I used to. Over the past few months Ive only bought: Finn Balor, Ascension, Sid, Godfather, Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens. And the last thing I bought before that was DM Sting when it first came out back in the summer. Whereas I used to spend several hundred every month.
