How long did it take to get your first grail?

[shooting4ownhand]

I just found my current grail pin on ebay last night. Hopefully I will win the action and have it in my possession by the end of the week. My grail pin is Pin 54561 Stitch as a Revolutionary War Soldier. If I win him, it only took me about a month to find him. I tried trading some Brave pins for him but no luck. So I get to keep my Brave pins and get my holy grail if all things work out! My first grail pin was Merida riding Angus and I got that pin within a week. I over paid for the pin by about 15 bucks but I had nothing to trade for it so I don't mind. It is my favorite pin I own.

Merryweather- which ones are your grails?

well ever since I have been collecting pins I have gotten three grails and feel super lucky!

My first grail was designer Ariel and it took me maybe 3-4 months and bought her in a co op for $85

My second grail was the undersea adventure box set and it popped up on a sales thread and I jumped on it! $90 for it

My third grail was the dsf hinged book and Aliceadict(Becca ) zapped me with it! can't thank her enough!!!

my current grail is the R/C Ariel and have seen it for sale five times but it is always way over my budget! lol!

Emily don't give up hope you WILL get your pins.. ALL of them just gotta be paticent (and belive me i know that is tough! lol!)

Well my first grail I think took me about 6 months. It was this pin :

Pin 33350: WDW - Spectacle of Pins 2004 (Oliver, Fagin & Dodger)wouldn't show up on ebay for love nor money at the time. A lovely trader on here helped me get it from someone on pinpics. of course, as is always the case loads of them showed up on ebay after I got it but as always that is sods law XD! Its fun to know that the pinpics picture is my pin which makes me giggle XD!

I guess i take the word "grail" too seriously since my 2 grails have been on my wants for over 8 yrs.
I actually see them on ebay once in a while but $425 is a bit much for me.
Magically i got it this week for $46.54 and am waiting for it to arrive.

Wow! It looks like there is a huuuuge variety between the times here!

I'm glad to see that most people have actually found at least one grail in their time trading

I am excited to see everyones grails too, especially ones that they have managed to get and I never saw them searching for them as I'm so new here.

I'm going to keep on trekking and keep on going and never give up on getting at least one of my signature grails, and maybe if I am very very very lucky then I'll get hold of that infamous TV show version of Buzz!
