Hey wrestling fans! 👋 I'm here today to talk about something that's been on my mind – selling off a big chunk of my wrestling figure collection. I've got about 25 figures that I'm looking to part ways with, and I'm hoping to find them new homes where they'll be appreciated. This whole thing has got me thinking a lot about the world of wrestling figures – the nostalgia, the collecting, and the thrill of the hunt. So, come along with me as I share my experiences, what I'm hoping to achieve, and some tips for anyone else looking to do the same!

Why I'm Saying Goodbye to My Wrestling Figures

Alright, so let's get to the main reason I'm doing this: it's time for a change, guys. The wrestling figure collecting scene has been a massive part of my life for a long time, but sometimes things evolve, right? Life moves on, and sometimes your interests shift. This wasn't an easy decision, of course. These figures represent countless memories, late-night hunts for rare finds, and the pure joy of seeing your favorite wrestlers immortalized in plastic. I spent years carefully curating this collection, and each figure holds a special place in my heart. Now I want to sell my wrestling figures to someone who will enjoy it.

One of the biggest reasons is a simple matter of space. Let's be honest, wrestling figures can take up a lot of room. I've realized that I need to downsize a bit. These figures deserve to be displayed and enjoyed, and if I can't give them the space they deserve, then it's time to pass them on. Then, there's the financial aspect. Collecting can be an expensive hobby. While I never collected with the intention of making money, the value of some figures has increased over time. Selling them could free up some funds for other interests or projects. It's about making room for new experiences and opportunities, and I am hoping to find a good home for these figures. And finally, I want to share the joy. I’ve always loved the wrestling community, and what better way to connect with fellow fans than by offering a piece of my collection? Hopefully, these figures will bring as much happiness to their new owners as they have to me. So let me tell you, if you are looking to buy wrestling figures for sale, you have come to the right place. The time has come to sell!

What's Included in My Wrestling Figure Collection?

Okay, so what exactly am I offering? As mentioned, there are roughly 25 figures in this lot. The figures range in size, brand, and value, depending on how rare the figure is. If you want to sell figures, you have to be specific about what figures you are going to sell. I've got a mix of different eras, from the Attitude Era, the Ruthless Aggression Era, and modern figures. There is a real mix of figures in the collection, so there is something for everyone, in my opinion. Now, I am not going to disclose all the figures I have in this collection for the time being, but I will be happy to talk about the specifics with anyone interested. I will describe some figures below, so get ready for some nostalgia!

Here's a sneak peek at some of the highlights:

  • Vintage WWF Figures: A few classic figures from the late 90s and early 2000s. You know, the ones that bring back all the memories of Saturday mornings and pay-per-views. I am hoping to find a home for some of these old figures. I remember getting some of these at a very young age and enjoying playing with them with my friends.
  • WWE Elite Collection: Some newer figures, including figures from the last 10 years. These are generally in great condition, with the articulation and detail we've come to expect from the Elite line. These figures have some great detail, and a lot of them are highly valued.
  • Rare and Chase Figures: I have one or two figures that are more difficult to find. These figures are from my own personal collection and are the rarest in my collection. These figures are especially sought after.

I am open to questions, so if you want to know more, I am happy to provide more information. I am selling them individually or as a whole lot.

Tips for Buying and Selling Wrestling Figures

Okay, guys, here's where I can share some of my experience, both as a collector and now as someone looking to sell. This section is for anyone interested in the wrestling figure values and wrestling figure collection values. Whether you're looking to buy or sell, here are some tips to keep in mind:

For Sellers:

  • Research: Before you list anything, do your homework. Check eBay, online forums, and other marketplaces to get an idea of the going rate for your figures. This will help you price your figures competitively and fairly. Remember, pricing is everything, and research is key to get the best prices.
  • Condition is King: The condition of your figures makes a huge difference in their value. Always be honest about the condition – are there any scratches, missing accessories, or loose joints? Detailed photos are a must. You want to be as transparent as possible, so buyers know what to expect. Trust me, potential buyers will appreciate the honesty, and you'll avoid any potential issues down the line.
  • Take Great Photos: Good photos are crucial! Make sure your photos are well-lit, clear, and show the figures from all angles. This is your chance to highlight the details and make your figures look as appealing as possible. Try to take photos against a clean background to avoid distractions.
  • Be Detailed: Write detailed descriptions, including the figure's brand, any accessories it comes with, and its condition. The more information you provide, the easier it is for buyers to make a decision. Highlighting any unique features or history of the figure is also a good idea.
  • Consider Multiple Platforms: Don’t limit yourself to just one platform. Explore different options like eBay, Facebook Marketplace, local buy/sell groups, and online forums. Each platform has its own audience, so the more places you list, the better your chances of finding a buyer.

For Buyers:

  • Do Your Research: Research is not only important for sellers but buyers too. The more you know, the better decisions you’ll make. Before you buy, familiarize yourself with the figure's brand, series, and any known issues. This is especially important for rare or high-value figures.
  • Check the Seller's Reputation: If you're buying from an online seller, check their feedback and reviews. This will give you an idea of their reliability and the quality of their items. Also, ask the seller questions about the figure, or the seller. Be sure to ask the seller about the figure’s history, or where they got it from. Ask the seller any important questions.
  • Ask for More Photos: Don't hesitate to ask for more photos, especially if you're unsure about the condition of a figure. Close-ups of the figure's joints, paint, and accessories can reveal any imperfections. If a seller hesitates to provide more photos, that is a red flag, and you should avoid buying from them.
  • Negotiate: Don't be afraid to negotiate the price. Many sellers are willing to come down a bit, especially if you're buying multiple figures. Do not be afraid to lowball the seller, if you think the price is too high.
  • Be Patient: Finding the right figure at the right price can take time. Don't rush your decision, and be prepared to wait for the perfect deal to come along.

What's Next?

So, what’s the plan for me? Well, I'll be listing my figures on various platforms, and I'll be sure to share the links and updates with you guys. I'm also open to answering any questions or discussing the collection with serious buyers. My goal is to find these figures good homes where they will be loved and appreciated. I'm hoping to get rid of these wrestling figures quickly and to good homes. Whether you’re a seasoned collector, a casual fan, or someone looking for a unique gift, I encourage you to check out what I have to offer. Feel free to reach out if you're interested in any specific figures or have any questions about the collection.

I will be sure to update the status of this collection as I go. I am excited to connect with other collectors and wrestling fans. I am looking forward to the next chapter and hope to find the perfect people for my figures.
