Ultimates

So since Ultimates are more difficult to find over here, how are people getting their hands on them? I looked on eBay and it's just insane prices for some.
The ringside import is just making these more difficult.
Just wonder what people's solutions are to this problem?

I use Super Power Toys/Wrestle HQ. It's an online independent local to me and they have pay weekly options through Laybuy/Clearpay so it helps justify and absorb the expense a bit easier.
They still have a fairly decent range of Ultimates in. I most recently got the Rock from them.

I made the decision to stop after Series 3 when it was announced retail would stop getting them. Seeing the prices on the secondary market on some of them is unreal, prices have gone through the roof! I love the line idea but I feel like there's been some weird choices. I will try and get Undertaker/Kane when they come out though, I really want both of those to open and display.

I’ve just ordered from the States and ate the shipping charge. Luckily no import duty charges have been applied which is a welcome relief  |

I'll say this till I die, the worst thing that ever happened to the Ultimates in the UK was Home Bargains getting the first two sets in (Ronda/Nakamura) and then TK Maxx getting shipments of the Warrior. It stopped every collector going to Smyths to pay £30 for them because Home Bargains "might get them in later" and stopped Smyths selling them without reducing them. It was a nightmare for the line, good at the time but in hindsight it basically killed the lines suppliers stocking them here and most importantly Smyths. |

Seems to be a steady flow of £54.95 per figure with these now. Even cena etc. Smyths should have given them more of a chance though.

I seem to be able to find new Ultimates from UK seller cheaper than this, don't know where you are buying things from!, take a tenner off and its more accurate all in. |

I use Collectable Kingdoms, they seem to have Rock/Cena, Austin/Flair and 'Taker/Kane in stock at £35 to £38 each. They do pre orders as well, usually combining the 2 in a set for a bit cheaper.
I just recently sold a spare UE Bret for £70 on ebay, started it off at 9.99 and saw where the market took it. People asking £100 plus each for these are bonkers to me.

I think FOMO plays a massive part in the price jumps. I sold my UE HBK loose, and got £80 for it, which was way more than I expected. As for the Amazon Rock, that just went crazy on the secondary market. |
