I was shocked to find so many rare elites and basics I've never seen before. As well as Exclusives for sale. Check out my video. Comment and Subscribe if you enjoy my findings. Thanks for watching

It is pretty awesome to see all those figs in one spot. Some of the price stickers didn't look too bad. But I'm sure most are scalp city.

I've always wanted to pass by there. I mean, it can't be any worse than Ringside, right?

Scalpers. How much are they charging? Are they charging more than retail?

It's always cool seeing that many older figures in one place, but generally they're all over priced. Cool video though, I'll sub lol.

I have been going there for many years. when I was younger ( about 9 or 10) it was a pretty cool place to shop. but now that collecting is bigger then ever. the prices have jumped a bit. I remeber getting RVD's first jakks figure there before he was in stores lol I felt like the coolest kid on the block lol but its pretty much like shopping on ringside in person lol. Awesome place if you haven't been GO!

The problem now is that Frank and son use to be kind of a secret place but now its on TV and everyone knows about it so prices are gonna naturally jump.

I went there one time about 20 years ago it was nothing more than a scalper den. It was back around when Batman Forever was out.

Lol. Did I mention it was on a family vacation to Palm Desert Ca which my wife and I dubbed the "Vacation from Hell"? We went to see where my mother was buying her house. It was my wife, mother, little sister along with my older sister her husband and their daughter who was a baby at the time. My wife and I had to get away for a while because it was a powder keg waiting to explode. My sisters were at each others throat because my niece had gotten hurt (banged her head on the marble floor) while my younger sister was supposed to be watching her...but she was too busy with her walk-man listening to that Seal album. Ahh good times. I swore I would never go on a vacation with the whole family again. Although on the way back to the timeshare from Frank and Sons we stopped at a Target and I scored the Batman Forever Batmobile and "Guardians of Gotham" 2-Pack.

Woah, I'm in that area. No wonder all the good figures are gone from here. I need that Slater! The 20-0 Undertaker for $15.00 is a good deal though.
*EDIT* Nevermind. I thought it said San Jose, CA. It's good to know that this scalper is not in my area.

That place is a rip off. Nothing but bonafide scalpers. Agree with this. A bunch of adult morons who don't know the value of a figure. A seller was going to offer me $15 for an Elite 1 Punk, yeah right. Most sellers base their prices off ebay and while I was trying to sell my Punk to the vendor and old man came with a bag full of Elites and telling the scam he did, not like he had any rare figures though. The moron went back and bought all the old Build of Figures John Cena's that were shelf warming at Toys R Us. xD You're better off buying wrestling figures off ebay. Now they do sell comics, posters, and cards for a great price though.

Yea, the price is about $20 per basic and $25-60! on elites. I do understand that if it wasn't for guys like this then we could find the figures with ease, but must admit seeing so many after seeing so few at the store is a feeling like being a kid getting a hard to get toy. Let's face it, if we see it at arms reach, we are gonna have it, we are adults with the passion of a kid with a credit card. Pay a little more cuz if it were easy it wouldn't matter as much. I NEEDED to find a Ryback and when I found him @franks I really appreciated it like a high end item.
Thanks for watching the video. More to come.
**Thanks for the negative Karma. Whatever that means. Only my second post, trolls. Enjoy WrestleMania. 20-1
