None at the moment. I'm pretty happy with how things have ended up, however... That same thought of missing a board after its sold is keeping me from selling a few in my collection.

I sold an actual Alps Electric keyboard to jdcarpe a few years ago and immediately regretted it.

Zenuty sold me an LZ-S with real vintage browns...

Vintage browns from a g80-5000.

And poor me thought it would be easy to source the switches again..

I kinda regretted selling my AEKII. But then I dabbled back into dampened Alps and remembered why.

It was a pristine example though :P

I was in the first poker 2 w/ mx clears drop then immediately sold it (for full price) to a friend of a friend.

I don't regret it at all though, clears have gotten a lot more common and I like my FC660M way more. I'm just proud to be able to say I participated in that original drop, even if it had zero impact on my collection.
I typed this post on my Slanck. I also developed a stronger, cleaner, easier handwiring method.

Honestly I started building a board last night that I'm already kinda liking. Its going to be really nice once it's done, but I'm building it just tot sell it.

I regret selling my Leopold FC200R's!  Had I known that years later a seller called Widebasket would start selling extremely nice thick PBT sets with a compatible space bar I would have kept them!  :eek:

I sold a Unicomp Ultra Classic Buckling Spring (PBT caps) to a coworker... but then replaced with another Unicomp Ultra Classic Buckling Spring (PBT caps).  Problem: solved.  :thumb:
