I think it’s nice to know about something that you know you most likely will never get.
Sometimes completing a set you’ve been focusing on for years is a bit anticlimatic and you feel a bit empty, whereas having a goal that you know you will probably never reach keeps your interest up for ages.
Human psychology can be weird…
Not everything is truly inaccessible… Who knows, maybe I’ll be able to find a cut-in-half-and-washed Illustrator one day for “only” 10k haha. Note that it’s not true for cards printed in 1-2 examples.
Not entirely sure I can relate as it seems to be a cope. However you are reffering to chase vs catch scenario whch is relateable as it’s ongoing but to say it as anticlimatic isn’t fair compared to when you are making new premium wins that literally shock your body.
Kind of depressing thread topic, but I guess it’s good to be realistic.
Never say never though…
This is a spoiler.
PSA 10 CD Promo Super Energy Retrieval
PSA 10 CD Promo Computer Error
Why are these cards so insane to grade.
Wait weren’t you about to send in a few dozens of those to PSA? Have you received your grades already?
Fan Club Porygon 700 GET, not the Lost expensive but a personal favourite. Sadly the pricetag is well above my budget
1st ed fossil tentacool psa 10. So hard to find!
PSA 10 Gold Star Jynx
@djgigabyte, seconded on the play espeon/umbreon 
Bro, I’ll take a heavily beaten up SNAP Bulbasaur over none. It’s more about having them all, than having them all in X grade. But with the very low printed, and even lower known out there. I doubt even a Heavy Played/Damaged SNAP Bulbasaur will ever be in my budget. Same goes for First Edition/Shadowless Venusaur. The “PSA6”/NM ones are now creeping but speeding up and I don’t think I’ll be able to catch them before having to spend a few grand on a card that basically is a binder copy.
Italian base set 1st ed Charizard PSA 10 … sigh
Even PSA 9 is hard to find now a days 
I only just finished my psa 9 Italian 1st edition set this year took me ages lol
The italian zard in PSA 10 is pop 0, and I don’t know if there will never be a 10… it would be such a beautiful card in 10 shape
I really love things like PLAY Umbreon, Illustrator, Master Key…but for me it is…
TROPHY KANG
Those who said Fan Club Porygon and Karp and Grand Party…I think you can reach this goal.
Complete FPO set and expedition sample set.
Why is an expedition master set so darn hard to achieve 
Prob that new zard
PSA 9-10 1st edition Dark Dragonite No-Holo Error as that one is well above my budget to spend on cardboard. I would love to have it to add to my Dragonite collection, but will probably have to settle with a PSA 8 unlimited no-holo error if I can find one, as that is more within my budget.
