I need to do some of that offsetting.

Try this offsetting. I skipped a Chic Fil A meal and instead bought a Bizarro pop and came out monetarily ahead.

My biggest purchase was sdcc spiderman. It’s tripled in price since I bought it a few years ago.

Outside of that I don’t buy a ton anymore. Especially, bigger purchases.

Probably either my Hall H Ashoka or Fundays Freddy Funko as Skeletor Wacky Wobbler. No, don't regret either pickup. Wanted both, saved for both, acquired both.

This thread just kicks me right in the nostalgia. You guys/gals have some amazing pieces in your collection.

Lets just say I've had my fair share of Funko purchases over $500 and I regret none of them.

Nice purchase. No lunch for a few months is worth it for that beauty of a piece.

You and me both as far as the over $500.00 price we paid. They’ll be apart of our collection as long as my husband and I exist, and will eventually go to our daughter.

I can remember back when I couldn’t imagine spending more than that on a singular Funko item but it didn’t last very long at all! I can say I’ve never regretted any of them!

It isn't of one item but a total of it all. I finally got into NYCC Funko Booth after 6 or 7 years of going to the con. So you know I went in at the register. I picked up almost everything and to be given that large blue Funko bag, I felt accomplishes. Boy did I regret it afterwards.

My second biggest purchase after that is probably Homer and Bart Simpson before they shot up in value after the announcement of more characters. Glad I bought it then even when I considered it to be a hefty price back when.
