What is the poster/print you most regret trading/selling?

If I sold it, chances are I don't regret selling it -- because it probably meant I wasn't really into it for some reason. I have a ton of prints right now that I could probably sell, but I haven't because there's something about each of them I still like. Until I know I'm over a print, I'm reluctant to get rid of it and find myself having to post in this thread.
Just in terms of missing out on the blow up, within a year of Tyler's stuff starting to take off I sold my Warriors variant, Lost Boys, Thing, and Blade Runner. I think that all sold in the $100-150 range (if that) or in trade value. Ah well... sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, and sometimes you just win a bit less than what you would have if you waited a little longer.

Yeah, if we're talking purely financial reasons the Stouts hurt the most.
This one especially:
I can also claim the first recorded sale of this... for $270 :
Not too upset though, when I sold things it was only if I really wanted to buy something else that I wanted more at the time.

Me too! I sold it for $85 last year and just now looked at what it's been doing. Holy hell! I'm almost speechless. It's a cool print, but not worth $600 IMO. In fact, I actually had trouble finding a buyer for that price. I thought I got lucky in getting rid of it for that price at the time.noeldaddy wrote:Ugh, I sold my Moss Die Hard for like 80 bucks or so.. Bad, bad move

The moral of this thread is:
"Never lowball yourself out of a print you like."
