For saving pepper seeds, I have always left the peppers stay on the vine til they are the very last color they can possibly be and then some to make sure the seeds are mature.
You must be commended for your patience, but that really isn't necessary. Some seeds mature long before the pod itself. You can easily grow jalapeños from green pods. Of course, as the pod ripens there are proportionately more mature seeds. But there is no need to deny yourself the pleasure of a pod for that.
