It’s been quiet year after I was able to complete Japanese dark holos, but I have not just been sitting on my ass. I decided that it’s now or never to start focusing on my Grail cards, and after 9 months or so I was able to do so. @charizandrew and I did trade for my holy grail card, the University Magikarp. Thank you Andrew, you’re the man!
It was years ago I had a chance to buy authentic Unikarp for about 1200€ and atm I thought that if I wait I’ll get it cheaper later, well that didn’t happen and price of Unikarp just kept rising and rising. After that opportunity went and the prices kept going higher I set goal for myself to get any Unikarp in any grade, I even said that in thread I opened were I asked about what other people’s holy grail cards were. “For me possibly obtainable card is unikarp in lower grades” - Jun 6, 2020
Now the day that I can say I have Unikarp is here, I would have never guessed in my wildest dreams that it will be PSA 8, I mean holy shit.
Other Karp in my grail list would obviously, the community college Magikarp aka Fan Club Karp. This card came from pokedavey from eBay, I dont know if he is user here but I would like to say thank you too.
It’s been hot minute since I’ve updated my collection post because I haven’t bought anything but finally I can put one collection goal to rest. Original Fan Club set, I’ve been after it for couple years and now it’s done and it feels good.
Once again I realized how much of a pain it is to take pics of slabs… Maybe that’s why it took me 2 months to update my collection thread but hey here we are.
