Have you ever sold/traded a game that you wish you didn't?

Now that I see the prices that Tectoy games are reaching on eBay, I really regret giving most of my Master System Europe/South America exclusive games to my young cousin some 20 years ago.
I used to have things such as Sapo Xulé vs os Invasores do Brejo, Mônica no Castelo do Dragão and Mortal Kombat II to name a few...

Am pretty sure that I did a lot of mistakes when was younger but these are the ones that at this day I still regret  :'(

* Sold my first SNES Jr.  to get a Playstation 1 and damn I worked so hard to get that SNES, sold it with Street Fighter Alpha 2, Samurai Showdown and Super Mario World.
* Gave to one of my cousins that Playstation1  because he wasn't able to purchase one (back in that days I did care for others) but I didn't gave him none of my titles.
* Trade at some EB Games X-Men vs. Street Fighter and Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter just to get Marvel vs. Capcom: Clash of Super Heroes.
* Exchanged an almost new PS One in box with manuals and everything for an used Dreamcast that by the way I still have at my collection.
* Sold my Mega Man 5, Samurai Showdown and King of Fighter '95 all of them from the GameBoy and the first one is kinda expensive now.

My brother selling it:

We had the ultimate NES collection as kids. Our step-grandma used to send us her NES games after she beat them, often with accompanying Nintendo Powers that had the guide to that game.

So by the time we had finished, we had every "must-have" in the library. Every Dragon Warrior, every Mario, both Zeldas, every Mega Man, all 3 Lolos, the Ultimas, all 3 Double Dragons, both DuckTales, every Castlevania, and so on and so forth. We had the official cleaning kit. We had the snap on thumbstick controller accessories, the full on arcade stick, the gun, Game Genie, the hard-plastic holders that hold like 16-catridges, hard individual cases for the cartridges, the manuals...the whole 9-yards. (The only thing we didn't have anymore were the original boxes, because as kids we didn't think to keep them.)

My brother sold it all to GameStop (right after they bought out FuncoLand, so they were taking classic trade-ins still). And what did he get out of it? A freaking Game Boy Color when they were still new, with a game carrying case, and a handful of games. It still haunts me. Luckily, most of the games I really liked I have either re-acquired, or for the more expensive ones they've been re-released (Dragon Warriors via GBC & DS, MM Anniv. Collection, DuckTales 2 recently, Ninja Gaiden 3 on Wii VC, etc).

Just wondering if you or your brother still remember how much money these bastards gave you for all of them, please don't said that they give you credit instead of money  :'(
burningdoom:
Yeah, store credit. That's how he got the GBC stuff.
