At least you got money for yours.

Went halves on a Dreamcast with my brother. He then went and sold it and a shitload of games to his mate without consulting me. :evil:

I think that means you know exactly what you spent it on.

Same here. In my mum's attic there are stacks of 90s game magazines (Gamesmaster, Edge, Super Play, Total, etc) and shitloads of old computer bits. I won't let her get rid of any of it.

As for my own place - yeah, I've got junk in 2 other 'spare' rooms in addition to the shitload in my own.

Sold my N64 with a bunch of games, controllers and expansion pack for £50 back in 6th form. Probably spent the money on alcohol or KFC :fp:

My mum is a hoarder so I imagine loads of my toys and gooseberry fool like that are still up in the attic somewhere collecting dust.

The Vectrex and 18 games my parents got me for one Christmas. Sold it the next year for £40, would have got £400+ with the games I had now... :fp:

The lurcher I adopted from the RSPCA years ago. That dog had issues that, at the time, I didn't have the experience to deal with. The RSPCA were fine taking him back (best thing for the dog) and he was adopted a week later. Still feel like gooseberry fool about it 7 years on.

My Transformers Alternators collection (which I'm in the middle of selling, some of them for crazy money) and Masterpiece Starscream. I'm still trying to decide whether I can part with Masterpiece Optimus.

My SNES including plenty of games, a Super Scope, Gameboy Player cartridge and a bunch of other little extras. I let it go for a stupidly low price back then, could've gotten way more for it (even at the time, nevermind if I'd held on to it longer) but really wanted money toward my Gamecube fund.

Ha! I wish. Trying to remember why I sold it in the first place...I'm sure it was for something specific but I can't think.

Like others here it seems I'm something of a hoarder. My room back at my folks' place in chock-a-block with random shite from since I was a babby because, let's face it, you never know when a Robosapien might come in handy.
