To me this is what a white whale is. It isn't just a card that costs a lot and is therefore out of reach or one where the seeker just hasn't yet found the right one, but rather a card that is really hard to find and a big need for someone.

I wish you luck Cmount!

I don't tend to be focused enough to have anything that I would classify as a white whale by my definition above, though I do have several cards that I want badly that just cost a lot or where I haven't found the exact right card for me yet.
