I just looked at my manchild stuff today and I was really happy that I still had my old pokemon card collection. This things is older than 10 years now, and I'm proud that I kept it. I had some very worn down consoles as a kid and eventually sold them so I had cash to get new games for newer consoles. The stuff I remember was a green N64 with a kirby sticker on it, and a really old gameboy my grandma gave me.

Nowadays I look back and feel like a dumbass for selling them. Do you have any childhood stuff you regret cashing out for? Sure I have grownup money now, but I will never get that same gameboy back. :(

I shed a tear while writing this.

No, in most cases I can always buy a new one if I need. Also I don't underprice my stuff, unless it's something I just want to get rid of.

My dad gave me an Asuna figure and I threw it in the trash. I feel kind of bad though. I should've sold it.

Hmmm, selling nop, but giving yeah.
When I moved from my hometown to study at Uni, I gave quite a lot of old toys and some "childish" books. Nowadays, I really regret having given those as they were a part of my childhood and I feel like I lost a connection and belongings with sentimental value.

I didn't regret it at all because I'm the buyer. A gameboy color and I just play pokemon crytal version all day, everyday. I get attached to stuff and find it hard to let it go so I don't sell stuff.

Yes. I sold a character in a MMO (level 416 sorcerer in Tibia)
for a decent price, but in the end not comparable to the time I spent developing it, and I didn't even quit the game for good (that was my intention)
tbh didn't expect myself to get attached to something like it

I didn't sell it, but I gave away my PS2 to my younger cousin. It was a birthday gift but I didn't play much with it because PS3 was already out and I was mostly interested in newer games. Also I played mostly on PC, so. But I regret it because I realized later that I missed many great games, and I know now that graphics are meaningless.

I used to play Crash Bandicoot 2 on PS1 as a kid a lot, but sold it to a friend during my teenage years... regretted it later on obviously. Luckily I found it on playstation store on sale so I can play it again, but having a digital retail copy isn't as cool as having a physical copy from way back.

Yes but most glaring example is Super Smash Bros Melee. For some reason, younger me thought I didn't need it anymore if I was going to buy Brawl. This was in late 2006. Brawl came out early 2008. And I didn't own a Wii.

I got 15 bucks for it which is an extraordinary amount for selling a game to a store. I bought the game again from another place 10 years later for 60 bucks. If I could time travel I would punch myself and steal him the game before he could sell it.

I haven't sold anything... yet.

Well there are some stuffs that I have that I could sell such as my accounts of various online games but most of my part I never want to sell them because I get a feeling I'll strongly regret it in the future.

This is going to sound crazy. But over 10 years ago my childhood friend was hard up and needed a bike so I gave him my BMX. At the time I had a car and thought I'd never ride a BMX ever again.

Well fast forward and for some crazy reason I want to BMX again. Except now to buy a BMX like mine is at least $2000+ IF I can find one!

I bought another decent BMX but it's just not the same, I want my old one back.

I sold my Mirror of Kalandra back in Harbinger league a bit too early, I got only like 130 exalted orbs for that, should've at least turned it into real money or something, I don't need currency on standard anyway, at least got my 40 challenges totem. I really want to try the new league but don't have the time right now.

Wait what was the thread about? Real items? No, not really.

I more often regret not selling or getting rid of things sooner. I like empty space, clear surfaces, and being able to put everything in its proper place.

Lmao lol that's actually quite a lot of money you could get out of that lol lmao
Did you get anything out of it? Lol


Nah dude like I said I gave it to charity. I went through like a month phase where I wanted to rid myself of all possessions and lead a completely meditative lifestyle. I sold my guitar amp too in that time. I nearly sold my damn guitar.

But as it turns out, I decided to come back to stuff like that instead of casting it aside :)

And I don't regret selling the guitar amp, it was way too big. Got a smaller one now.

I didn't really sell it but my parents gave away my sega genesis and super nintendo as well as all of my games for them. Granted we didn't have an adapter for me to play them on my new TV, but the person who we gave them to was a family member who went to jail and lost them somewhere so I'm super salty.

That being said thank goodness I got a snes classic which has at least all of my favorites that were lost.

Lmao Oh damn that's some deep shit I didn't expect lol lmao lol

Guitar amps are expensive though holy shit lmao lol I stopped playing because it was expensive to get another anp + to constantly buy strings and picks lmao lol Good for you though that you got a more convenient one out of it lol


And now I even need a new one. Been using tube amps, but I might not mind a solid state instead. Probably better for recording.

Don't think I had anything like that.. In most cases it was something that could be easily replaced so I have no regrets. Some people are just attached to stuff they own, maybe because of nostalgia. My father is like that and he always resists the idea to sell useless stuff.

not sure if this counts because i gave it away as a gift rather than selling it off, but i totally regret giving away my toy light saber in third grade. it was made of pretty durable hard plastic and with a flick of the wrist, the sabre part would fly out and theres a mini button on the handle where you press to make it light up.

third grade me regretted it the day after and i still sometimes think about it. i dont particularly miss it but it was pretty cool and i shouldve kept it for myself :P

My Old Playstation, and any GameCube game I traded in for store credit cause I was a kid and was scrounging for the extra funds for that one new game.

I could be playing FFIV, Chrono Trigger or Digimon World 2 right now ;A;
