There is a valuable thing out there. It's one-of-a-kind, which makes it the greatest prize ever. That means someone wants it, just for that reason, by any means. Note it's not the artifact hypnotically seducing the person into wanting it. The person is just that selfish or greedy. Nor is it something earned; it's outright taken. It also doesn't count if someone steals it for the thrill of the theft, or to just show how good a thief he/she is. Either the thief has to want it, or he/she is stealing it for someone who does. Note that this rarely ends well, no matter whether the story is idealistic or cynical. That person stole something they shouldn't keep. In idealistic stories, it's too important to lock away. In cynical stories, it's too dangerous to try to lock away. |

In the first Acorna book, Hafiz Harakamian sought to add Acorna to his collection of rarities as the crown jewel, a desire which quickly disappeared once he learned she wasn't some sort of mutant, but a lost member of a space-faring race. | |

RainbowDoubleDash's Lunaverse: When she was a child, Puissance's parents told her she'd want for nothing. Skip forward several decades, and she's an old and rich lady for who this has always been true, and whenever a new shiny thing catches her interest, she will have it. Even if that thing in question is a living being. She's got a whole collection of unique ponies all for herself, and who are creepily devoted to her in return. | |

Ublaz Mad Eyes in The Pearls of Lutra from the Redwall series is obsessed with the titular pearls, known as "the Tears of All Oceans". He has a crown already made with six empty facets in which to place the pearls, and wants them badly enough to send multiple expeditions out to Mossflower to find them, resulting in the slaughter of an entire hold of otters (save one) and the abduction of innocent Abbeydwellers just to satisfy his vanity. | |

Robin: Toyman takes advantage of the fact that the man who bought most of his collection will be completely unable to turn down a certain vintage toy tank if it appears at a toy seller's in Gotham by turning the thing into a remote-controlled weapon. The ensuing confrontation over the toys between Toyman and one of Bruce Wayne's eccentric neighbors who both have this mindset when it comes to the toys they collect has to be broken up by Robin. | |

Comes up in Dad's Army of all places where Mainwaring is trying to buy some oranges at a charity auction from the warden, who predictably is doing everything in his power to stop him from getting them. Eventually Wilson tells Pike to buy an orange for Mainwaring but neglects to tell the captain, resulting in Mainwaring entering a furious bidding war against himself. He eventually ends up paying ten shillings for it (when the first one sold for a couple of pence). | |

Doctor Who: In "The Seeds of Doom", two alien pods are found in the Antarctic permafrost. The psychotic millionaire Harrison Chase sends a team of thugs to get them because they're unique. The pods cause vegetation to kill animal life, endangering the world. In "City of Death", a key plot-point involves the theft of the Mona Lisa, to be sold (along with six identical paintings) to finance Count Scarlioni's temporal experiments. Inspector Duggan observes to the Doctor at one point, "There are at least seven people in my address book who'd pay millions for that picture, for their own private collections. It would be an expensive gloat, but they'd do it." |

Lupin III doesn't count for this trope. He never wants it for the rarity, and has often taken something just to make sure someone else doesn't have it. On the other hand, Fujiko is also the cause of many of their capers. To the point where Jigen will try to quit the job once he hears it was her idea. | |

Kamen Rider Decade: Kamen Rider Diend has a 'treasure' in each episode that he is seeking. He alone knows what makes something a 'treasure,' and he only wants it because it is one, and rarely for what it actually does (some of 'em are important to the plot.) Invoked in the World of Kabuto arc, where Decade claims to have a bottle of legendary spice discovered by Vasco de Gama, which of course Diend wants. In reality, it's nothing but ordinary pepper, and Decade is Trolling Diend as payback for all the trolling he usually does. His habits cause significant chaos in Kamen Rider Zi-O because he arrives at some crucial point of the story and steals the most important Transformation Trinket at the moment. The intervention may be potentially world ending. |
