    The thing I would love the most is the Dallas 1998 poster. It was my first PJ show and I've bid on a few but the price is a little out of my budget. I'm willing to buy/trade for this as well. It doesn't have to be perfect b/c I will be framing it, it's more for a nostalgia reasons than for a sheer collecting standpoint. :)

    Bump for my pipe dream of owning this poster.

    The kind of unfortunate thing about the 98 posters is that while the prices seem to go down a bit, I think it might have gotten close to the point where everyone who has one is someone who really wanted one, as opposed to people who have them and don't care if they sell it. On top of that I imagine since I think they were less than 20 bucks at shows, a bunch of them probably ended up getting taped or pinned to walls, or just overall bashed up over the years. And on top of that thinking back to the seattle 98 show, it was an outdoor show on a soccer field with a pretty big crowd. And then when it got really hot they were spraying the crowd with water from a fire hose. I could easily see a bunch of those posters (if someone were carrying it around all day) getting messed up and not making it out of the venue in very good condition. So with all those factors I could easily see how the supply of 98 posters that are in good condition and that people want to sell is probably pretty small.

    At this point for me it has to be the Klausen Toledo 04 poster. It is now the only poster I do not have from the shows that I have attended. Hopefully one will pop up soon.

    I got really lucky and found a 98 Phoenix (kind of dinged up) to trade for last month. That was my grail. Now, it would probably be either the posters from shows I attended that I don't have yet (Seattle 00, Phoenix03), setlists from the shows I attended, and the 2010 Into the Wild vinyl (just going to spin it, so I don't want to fork out the $ for a 2007 one).

    I'm not really a huge collector of things other than cd releases, so I'm pretty happy with the PJ collection that I've put together thus far in that respect. So, it may seem a bit strange here, but my "holy grail" item is probably the Vault #1 cd.

    Hey Marc, you have both of these posters waiting to join your collection if you want to meet up one of these days. Can't help you with the setlists or the Into the Wild vinyl but hey, 2 prints from shows you went to is probably worth meeting up for no? Let's meet up soon to get these prints in your hands buddy! Get back to me soon. ;)

    My grail has changed. It's now a RIAA gold or platinum sales milestone framed piece for one of the PJ albums (Yield would be first choice, but I know Ten and Vs are the most common).
