Collectors' regrets

[HCWILD]

Found a Weapon UK 12" (It's a Mad Mad World/Set the Stage Alight) at the thrift store years ago for 2 bucks and silly traded it for another record

During the mid and late 90's (pre-Internet era) I decided to sell my entire CD collection (about 200 CD's) which included a major part of these old Thrash and Death Metal CD's. Nowadays they sell for 150-300 E a piece. I've thrown 1000's of Euros out of the window.

Around 1990/91 you could purchase factory sealed US CD's (partly A5 sized cardboards from Roadrunner, New Renaissance etc...) for 1-2 D-Mark and vinyls for 3-5 DM that nowadays sell for 50 and much more Euros. If you only take Adrian - One step... LP that Hellon sold for more than 10 years for just 5 DM and nowadays ... or the Amoreen MLP, 5 DM. LOL

Ugh, don't remind me/us about that. I still have that rose-paper A6 Hellion catalogue from 1994. That was almost 15 years before my first decent monthly wages, so...

A decade or so ago I traded away a few 45s because I wanted something else. Turns out the thing I traded for is now worth $15 and the 45 I traded for it is now worth $200+...
