having bought and bought and sold so many scopes in search of that perfect combination, i've definitely sold a few i should have kept. a beautiful Q4, an 8" f/6 dob with a mirror by mike spooner, and a terrific C9.25 all come to mind, but my worst move was selling a Cave 6" f/6, and i nearly gave it away. oh well. its been about 10 years now and i'm almost fully recovered. anyone else?
the one that got away... and still kicking myself

Guitar equipment, yes... telescopes, no. I tend to keep too much stuff though because I think I might regret it later. The other side of the same disfunctional coin.

I sold my Brandon 94mm F/7 refractor with the Roland Christian triplet objective, which I feel pretty foolish about now, since they command higher prices now used than they did when they were brand new. I might have saved myself the cost of the TV 102 I eventually replaced it with. I'm thinking of selling my 10" Portaball now, and I'm wondering if I might have similar regrets down the road.
