I personally believe that you can almost get any cap you want if you just have enough patience. I think the only exception to this is the Tritium Valve CCs and the Skeletor(White on Purple) CC
When I first got into this hobby back in 2014, I was immediately hooked onto Artisans and was overwhelm by the large variety there was. Before the 2015 Artisan maker boom, there was Clack, Bro, Binge, HipsterPunks, and Martin(if I forgot others I apologize, these 5 were the ones that I saw on the regular). I didn't even know where to start, downloaded Tapatalked and marked notifications on for every manufacturer. But that still didn't help because I was getting rekt left and right.
I finally got my artisan when I won the application race(this was before Martin did a group buy style sales) for HKPs which got me a Black and Red Raven. I was so happy, but I wasn't done I wanted a cap from every maker.
I got my first Binge a month later from Hoffman's Christmas sale netting me a champagne Keyng(this was what really got me addicted to artisans). I stayed up until 1am refreshing HipsterPunk's home page every second to buy a Fatigued Green Vandal. I got my first ever clack from camping my computer during Clackevent. (Actually got another one too, and it was a OG tri! Never thought I would touch a tri clack in my lifetime).Got my first BroCap from a classifieds thread from suicidal_orange! Won my first ever Brocap from the email race for the Cosmos sale(before this I was 0/8).
I think people who overpay for artisans(I'm talking about +$100 retail price) is just lacking the patience, and but I don't blame them
