My mom made me get rid of all my Yu-Gi-Oh cards in 2nd grade because they were too 'demonic'  :(

Same! Except it was Pokemon. I even had to SMASH my Pokemon Red game!


That must be a traumatic experience..

Am glad you guys didn't turn into drug addicts to cope with the mental abuse..


Although I suppose there's still alot of time for such malady to play out..


But still,    Don't Do Drugs..  Drugs are bad..

Mmmmmmmmmm-kay

Kind of regret selling my V6 Vauxhall Vectra... But it was beaten up and it was all sorts of chipped.

I don't think I have anything keyboard related that I regret selling. Maybe my 3D Clack...
Can we get them to build the Alps ten feet higher and get Cherry to pay for it?

My school jumped on the bandwagon that pokemon was demonic too. I think it was just a ruse to get kids to stop bringing the games and cards to school (they couldn't bring them if they didn't have them). Some parents bought it, but luckily my mom wasn't one of them. It's especially ridiculous now that I don't believe in the supernatural at all.

I can't think of anything I regret selling because I don't sell stuff. I figure the stuff I have either isn't worth anything after I've owned it or it's not worth the trouble of finding a buyer. I'm also way too nostalgic to let go of anything. With the exception of things that have been lost or broken, I still have all the toys and video games from my childhood and my brothers' childhoods (they've kept a few things for themselves though). I have way too much crap lying around....

Mainly the things I regret not having are things that have been lost mysteriously over the years, most likely from my brothers' taking them or trashing them and not telling me.
Maybe they're waiting for gasmasks and latex to get sexy again.

The world has become a weird place.

Do we have a spot for things we regret not buying when we had the chance?

Had a massive NES collection that I sold to get a SNES. Had most of the Mega Man games but thought that no one would ever go back to play old games...
At least my SO kept her NES <3
