Message:: [QUOTE="johnnycb09, post: 146060, member: 27"]Too many to count , but heres a few of my top ones.... A Tiffany clock with matching candelabras given to me by an elderly lady when I helped her clean up a mantel that had collapsed due to water damage ( I  met her through meals on wheels ) , an arm on the candelabra had broken and when I took it to get it repaired the guy said it was $500 ( what 19 year old has $500 ?!? ) then he offered to buy it for that much , and like a FOOL I sold it to him . In my defense , I was young and knew about antiques , but not as much as I should have . That was 1983 and I still regret it !The second one that really burns my heart is a gold doubloon from the Atocha that an ex had given me ,the rope chain it was on was on was massive so I rarely wore it and the first time gold was so high I sold it . What I wouldn't give for that back !I also found a set of 4 silk Steven graphs at a garage sale for a $1 apiece that were as bright and vivid as the day they were made . I loved those things madly , but sold them when a guy offered me $250 apiece ! I mourn them too . Finally , a Scheier ceramic bowl that I sold on ebay and regretted the second I did it . The lines were perfection , and it rang like crystal when you pinged it .In essence , everything I ever sold I regret ! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]
