Flesh 10 packs are the most expensive out of the three, but not $175 expensive. I would estimate $75 - to maybe a little over $100.
Thank you for your reply. I'm very picky and skeptical of re-seals and repros these days. Anything to be on the lookout for, whether something is sealed or not?
This is the auction for the 10 pack I've been watching:

Don't buy the ring that has been graded and the seller is asking $299. That is wayyyyyyyyyyyyy too high.
My "cool" still packaged items are anything with a claw. I have one color 10 pack with a green claw, and I paid Jkaris $35; however, a color 10 pack with claw now will probably go for $70 (maybe more or less). Keep an eye out for Satan Cross four packs too. Those are kind of hard to find. Last year one guy on Ebay had four or so for sale. From what people on this forum who bought them said they were legit. Those can go for $100 - $150.
Still wrapped belts, 28 packs, and rings show up from time to time too, but others would have to provide an estimate. I bought my still packaged belt back in 2009 for $75/$150 (I don't remember), and I remember within a couple of days I had one guy offering me twice than what I paid. That is in 2009, so don't really go by that for the belt. Prices go up and down. Stay around long enough and you'll see.
Read the For New M.U.S.C.L.E. Collectors thread that is pinned in the M.U.S.C.L.E. forum area. That will provide some more useful links. The www.uofmuscle.com link does an auction watch, so it might have some prices in there for stuff you're asking about.
