Thanks everyone! 
Dogma, those pm’s were spot on about the selection at worlds, only japanese highlights were miracle diamond and a master key.
I purchased the japanese cards right before worlds (Kamex and Illustrator). All of the english cards were purchased at worlds, the japanese selection was limited.
I am extremely frugal. I have been buying and selling for ages and just have figured out how to cut corners and put away money for larger purchases!
hahaha you must enlighten me on these methods I think I’m missing something. Do you plan on getting any of those graded?
@smpratte - Congratulations, Scott!! I hate you 
Nah~ I am very happy for you
Where is the [Kamex Battle Computer Error “White R”] Card? I cannot see it in your photo album 
His is right here: s728.photobucket.com/albums/ww282/smpratte/Smpratte%20Collection/?action=view¤t=picture410.jpg
…and mine is right here: s990.photobucket.com/albums/af24/mkpokecc/?action=view¤t=kamex0062.jpg …I hope scott plans on having his graded too I literally only had mine for 10 mins before it went in the mail again.
@mkpokecc - Aww…! I want a [Kamex Battle Computer Error “White R”] now :<
I keep giving them away to people NNNGGGHH
You have Kamex’s to give away? What?
Scott, your collection is amazing.
@dogma - I gave up multiple opportunities to purchase a [Kamex Battle Computer Error “White R”] card – three times. I decided to let certain individuals have a chance of obtaining them first, because they had expressed their interest prior to my own. In certain circumstances, this becomes a habit. I would provide a private message with details of its whereabouts, and leave it be. It is a pretty thankless act of generosity, nowadays. You just take a breath and realize you did a bit of good
Bless you UU, you are indeed awesome
@dogma - Aww~!! Thank you
Thanks everyone, especially Unique! I would not have that Kamex if it was not for your generosity
And I do plan on getting the illustrator and Kamex card graded. I am thnking of getting a 6 card screwdown for each year for the winds. I think it will look nice have the staff-finalist in one of These!
@smpratte - Aww~! You’re welcome
That does look pretty awesome
Amazing collection. Incredible.
I was wondering where people got these 
Plus, this store is about 30 minutes from me xD
You can get them off ebay.
This is actually a good question! (I think I’ve only just stopped drooling over the Illustrator)
Can you share who’s you got? And did you find out any more about the Illustrator at Worlds?
Well I can say that it is not the one from japan! And If you notice the one ebay is not there anymore.
The information we received at worlds was from Tsuguyoshi Yamato. Yamato is a very well known figure in pokemon, he is also the same person who provided information about the Lugia and Ho-oh trophy cards.
I approached him and showed him photo’s of cards from my collection and when I asked him about the Illustrator all he said was “three”. I asked him 3 copies? And he said yes 3.
I personally believe that there are around 6 total, but this is the information he provided.
Yeah as soon as I hit post I realised I already knew the answers to my questions but figured what the heck, just leave them on 
I know for a fact there are more than 6. I still wish I knew exactly how many there are though. This is honestly Pokémon’s greatest mystery 
So the one you have is steve’s?
Did he provide counts with ant other cards you showed him? Oh, btw whats up with that who thing with ebirdman and the illustrator??
