JVOSS | 1,762 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 (edited) Not to distract form @Jason topic of "Post your Holy Grail Item!" I wanted to discuss what is your "holy grail" item.(should you want to let people know). What are you willing to do for it. Where has it taken you, and that sort of thing. Edit, clarified the subject and title. Edited August 21, 2020 by JVOSS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JVOSS | 1,762 Posted August 19, 2020 Author Share Posted August 19, 2020 After getting my top 2 "holy Grail" items i am now starting my next quest. the Zelda China only cart GB. For me the, journey has sent me to various Asia countries over the last 10 years and I have yet to see one.

To put it in perspective, the MM set was $3000-$4000+ back in 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People who have been around me for a while may know what mine is. Suffice to say, I'd almost offer a bounty stating "you can have 100%, my entire collection if I can get this one item." I don't have the cash on hand (I need to stop spending all of my collector dollars, hahaha) but what I want may not exist. I will say it's a piece of art. I'd trade/sell my entire collection for it and I'd just start over. Edited August 21, 2020 by RH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePhleo | 2,185 Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Right now my holy grail is available for sale, a complete sachen NES set with a ton of the rare original artwork boxes included and all 4 huge insects. But, I don't have the money available to buy it at the moment.... To answer the question: I've been selling some of my duplicates to try and gather cash.

Sir Centroid | 79 Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 It's not so much a "grail" as it is a goal. I finally settled on collecting for the Nintendo Switch, so now my goal is to collect everything for switch that looks like it might be a pain to track down later, this way I'm not at risk of spending $500+ on a single title at some point in the future. I would much rather spend $500+ now and get 15-20 games for that amount. So in a way, I guess you could say that I'm trying my best to make sure that I don't have a grail to aim for in the future!
