We all have Want/Need lists. Doesn't matter what kind of collector you are - prospectors, set, player, high-end, gu, whatever. And we all have cards that are so rare that they hardly, if ever, show up on ebay or elsewhere online.
From personal experience, my white whale was sitting in a dealers bank vault up in Wisconsin in June. If a friend of mine (jpcz) hadn't contacted that dealer at random inquiring about cards for our sets, my white whale could possibly be still sitting in that vault.
So my question is... is there a real need for a "want list" sheet that could be distributed to dealers across the country and internet? If there is a card you are currently in the hunt for, does it kill you as much as it kills me to wait and wait for it to be listed on ebay or naxcom or wherever? Or to stumble across it by pure chance?
Let me know your thoughts on such a thing. Does something exist along these lines that I'm not aware of? I've got some ideas but wanted to open it up to you guys to get some input. Thanks for the read.
