Actually probably closer to five; there are things I've been after that I passed on for five

Re: How much would you pay for your grail/chase figure?
Impossible to really say an amount as it depends on the figure completely and how important that "grail" is.
I consider that I've spent quite a lot for some items that were at their "release" prices, and in hand, didn't feel like they were worth the price, but regardless of price, they are great to have.
So for some that were not common items, 3rd parties and such that have been out of production for a while, I've gone with anywhere from double the original price, to some rare occasions that was at maybe 3 or even 4 times that (as the release price was low and I missed out at the time and was catching up on a few.
I tend to draw the line at "common sense" if that's a thing.

If it's a figure I really want...
No more than 10% of my monthly salary. If original retail price exceeds that, then no more than double original retail price (for an older figure) and only if it's a figure I really want.

Re: How much would you pay for your grail/chase figure?
I don't know exactly - but it's somewhere bounded by what I have paid (for non-grails) vs what I *refused* to pay (for "grail candidates"):
Did ~650 for "Hercules"
Did ~75 for "Draculus" (dammit)
DID NOT do ~$950 CDN for HasLab Unicron
DID NOT do $10,325 (or whatever the final, CDN expense would be) for Robosen Automatic Optimus Prime (+ trailer!)
...anyway, I think there may be a formula in there somewhere to determine where I'd land - but... you know, "math" and such.

Re: How much would you pay for your grail/chase figure?
The thing about it is I don't even know what my grail figure is anymore. We've getting so many releases lately, I haven't even had a chance to think about something that I truly want. If something came out that I really wanted, $300 max (and that's pushing it).
