Having mild regreat selling my last laptop and phone for different systems. One has to be returned and fixed and the other has a impossible to find charging port board since it broke. So I have one device that I can use online that needs to be sent in. I need to use something until it is fixed. So it is taking far too long too get all this fixed and I was likely better off before.
Got a tip for us?

I'm sorry I sold my collection of X-Men Comics. They got more valuable as the movies made the X-Men more popular.
-1967 Cheverolet C30 Custom Camper edition with 11:1 compression and posi.
-NES and games
-IIvx (my first Mac)
-PowerMac 7100/66AV (my first badass Mac with 72MB RAM, FWB Jackhammer, High Speed 2GB hard drive, 17" Sony Trinitron, Photoshop 4 and a 33.6kbps modem)
- AST 286 (actually it was my dad's but it was our families first computer in the mid 80's and how I learned about them)

I sold the French horn I used the 12 years I was a professional orchestral musician. I figured there was no way I could combine two full-time jobs, and it would be to heartbreaking to play poorly ("just for fun" wouldn't be any fun).
Six years later, I got offered a two-week gig, and borrowed a horn to see if it was possible to get into shape in a couple weeks. Two weeks later, I was kicking myself for having sold my lovely horn.

That is a shame! I wished I had musical skills, hopefully you will continue your talent.
I play two Chinese instruments now, without the frustration of having ever been a professional on them!
And I ended up buying another horn for a few years, while I took those once-in-a-while gigs, but now I'm ready to sell it again - this time with no regrets!
