Just curious

One piece that eluded me for a long time was an emerald old warrior…of course now that I have one they come up all the time 😛 The black unicorn family was a bit more rare also when i first started collecting and it seemed like they always got too pricey on ebay for me but i eventully got my set. The black grand unicorn is a very special ebay piece, I’ve never seen one come up for sale since i’ve been collecting and even if one did it would go for over 1000 im sure, if not much higher, so it would be out of my legue…but i’d love to have one. Hmmm other than that the larger white dragons are some what scarce, larger brown dragons seem very scarce, ruby old warriors don’t come up too often. It seems like emeralds and peacocks are fairly common( This is all just my observation, and i’ve only been collecting about two years) It seems like more and more rare pieces are coming up though as people are having harder times with the economy.

Castle of The Hawks…It took me 2 years of hunting to find one. I’ve got it now, and am not letting it out of my sight. Ruby OW, I got one now, but it took me a couple years to get it too. I either couldn’t afford it from the store, or I’d miss them in sales. Now, every time a Stone Cottage candlelamp comes up for sale, I don’t have the money, but if I have the money they are never there! And that has been 2 years or more too. 🙄

I really wanted one of those black grand unicorns that were auctioned.. got outbid at the last second on every single one..

later a guy was selling one.. apparently he had gotten two of them off ebay.. I emailed him back and forth about the price.. and he seemed cool making arrangements to pay him and all that.. suddenly he stopped answering and a few weeks later the black grand was on ebay with a reserve that no one reached even when it was bid up to $3500..

that was so annoying in so many different ways..and I still want one.. but not that much.. LOL

Well, for the longest time it was the Flion, but I finally got one! Now I’d have to say it’s the brown bengal Cat’s Cradle. I’ve been sniped at the last second every time I bid on one. 😆

Right now I’m not able to catch a special painted cat’s cradle or cat candlelamp in either siamese or tabby. I really want the cat candlelamps in one of each of those colors, so they match my boys.

Peacock Lap and Hatching Emperor for me. Seen a few pass by on e-bay but they are never mint with tag and box. Wouldn’t mind a Peacock Secret Keeper either if one ever pops up for a resonable price.
