Default New year for collectors, any sets/specific cards you're still looking for?

It's been a wild one in 2022, lots of market correction as expected but we made it through.

With many people selling off their collection, we've seen some grails up for auction as well as cards from sets we've rarely seen.

What grails have you guys picked up this year and what are you still waiting to surface?

These are a couple of cards that I've been waiting to find that's not MJ:

2006-07 UD Chronology Gold Auto Johnny Kerr 10/10 (Specifically 10/10 since it's his Jersey #)

2017-18 Panini Status Draft Night Autographs Inscriptions Jayson Tatum 1/1 (It's a 1/1 but figured with JT's rise, it would pop up by now)

Collecting aside, wish everyone and their families a Happy Holidays and stay safe out there in 2023.

Not really a grail, but I finally got ahold of the final card I needed to complete a Shaq rainbow from the 2022 Panini VIP Gold packs from this years National. Took many months for that final parallel to pop up for sale. I'll post them all when I get that last card in and a good chance to take nice pics of them all.

A card I've never seen pop up is 2010-11 Panini Past & Present Variations #25 Metta World Peace. It's the last to finish my set. I know whenever one pops up it will be a highly sought after card.

A low-end cheap (beaten up/Wizards/College) Jordan sticker auto card. That's it

Awesome. I’m looking for certain Melo rookies myself, but only Exquisite.

I'm still looking for the 02-03 fleer Tradition Heads Up Game Used Pierce. Another grail for me that I'm waiting to pop up is the Penny 1998-99 Skybox Thunder rave. Been slowly completing the 00-01 Fleer Showcase In the Paint. These are tough to come by and even tougher with the paint so need a few of these.
