I don't get you guys pre-ordering those figures for crazy high prices. Seems like you're just throwing your money away. But I guess you're just impatient and love this figures - I can understand that. But the more you pay crazy high prices for these figs, the more they will go up and up!. The way I see it, I'm already throwing a lot of time and money away by driving all over town, hoping to arrive at the right time when fresh cases of figures are put out. Finding a full set of figures in stores is getting harder and harder to do, making the thrill of the hunt more and more frustrating these days. Sometimes the only new thing I find is a higher price tag for the same old pegwarmers. So paying a couple of extra dollars for a full set of new Elites delivered to my door a month early is well worth it, IMO. exactly. i look at it like this, at retail elites are what 18 bucks? so i'm paying 7 dollars extra per figure, to get it early, not have to drive to store to store week after week for a chance to find one? i'd rather spend the extra bit of cash for the figures i want. so much easier. |

Yeah, I have no problem paying $25 for an elite to get it early, and not waste more than $7 in gas trying to find it. I wish they were not charging as much for the basics ($30), and for the 2 pks which are on backorder so the overnight excuse is not relevant. However, they can charge what they want, as long as people are buying good for them in this economy.

Well i wanted Cody, Edge, Ziggler, and Sheamus but it was already $100 + shipping on that so i just went ahead and got the whole set since it's not that much of a difference with the WFIGS code i got $14.00 0ff so it's not the greatest deal but it beats hunting all over the place for them and wasting gas.

Ordered Layla, won't have any more cash until tomorrow so I'm praying Cody, Dolph, Edge and Brodus don't sell out right away.

I mean they shouldnt be they were only put up today and thats 2 days after. It would actually be ridiculous if they back ordered them that early considering they dont even have any in stock too sell and are sending the orders too Mattel too ship over ya know? so we should be good.. if it was a week away or more than i would worry |

They get a certain amount per shipment. They order shipments once a month. They are only allowed to sell what they get in their shipments. They don't take orders and say, "Hey Mattel, I need this many of this guy and this many if this guy, etc." They could go on BO. Not to be a pessimist, but A lot of E11 and Vickie went on BO THE SAME DAY they went up. It happens. |

While I understand the reasoning for the prices, I hated to spend 30 each on Brodus & Layla. Considering she's injured and he's yet to make a real impact. Maybe after he debuts next week, I'll change my mind.

I would've never expected to find elite 11 in K-Mart of all places. I lucked out then, but everything else I feel justified in pre-ordering if I really want it. I wanted elite 10 kane and he was backordered and I JUST found him yesterday in walmart and they've been out for a while now. |

I picked up Brodus, Layla, Sheamus, Wade, and Rey. The discount from wfigs almost paid for the shipping. I am really looking forward to these, especially Layla and Brodus. I do think $30 is high, but I paid it because I have a 90 mile drive to the nearest TRU, and local stores are just now getting series 10 Elites.
