oh man, i don't even know... i had a handpaint that went to john for cost, but since its not a production piece it doesn't really count to me.
i've laid down $200 - $300 on a few choice pieces. not so proud of it, but i basically have every older SB piece that i want besides the red skullwing.
i'd tell u which ones if i could remember. the employee was over 200, but under 250.

I dropped 150 for one of apparently two blue GID skullwings Kozik had and I'm A.O.K. with that. It still one of my favorites.
And the FC obake for being rare certainly does seem to pop up a lot...

I started collecting SB with the Skullwings so I was straight in at the deep end . . . averaging $100-200 a pop!
Like Jackie I shelled $200-300 on some of the earlier/rarer pices to catch up (FC Damaged Brain, Gold Sly & Robby, Screwbiter etc).
More memorable are the cheap scores . . . they outweighs the $$$ pain!

I haven't been whacked too bad yet. The most so far has been $95 for my fan club skullpirate.
I've limited myself to a few different figures already so I don't spend too much. I've decided to slowly bring in the other stuff so as to avoid overwhelm.

In light of my recent toy purchase, being that I popped my "500.00" cherry and the fact that the prices of some SxB pieces have gone WAY up since the inception of this thread, I thought today would be a great chance to re-visit and see if any of you have spent more than your original "most spent" SxB item.
My top 3 most paid for secretxbase figures to date:
1. Handpainted Skullwing (500.00) - cherry pop!
2. Glow Skullpirate - 220.00
3. CLOT Skullpirate - 175.00 (i think)
What about the rest of ya???

The most I have ever spent on a SB figure is 200.
Screwbiter
Blood Pirate
Black and White Pirate
But then lately I've gotten some KILLER deals, so I cannot complain.
