This smallish set, with a useless breakdown:

I regretted it so much that years later I bought this set to ease the hurt:

Palais des Congres

Jacks, but I only regret selling the secondary 1K’s and primary 5K’s.

I love this set!

 

[Mooneypenny]

I love this set!

That is such a monster stack, it’s just gross!

One of a kind chips, I knew I'd regret it but funds were tight, needed the cash to grow the business. I also play micro stakes with friends so it was perfect.

Haven’t seen that set before, super classy with the hotstamp nickels. Amazing $5 spots too.

Yeah it's an old set, I acquired it in a trade for a poker table years ago on chiptalk. The only bad thing is that it was nearly impossible to do an add-on.

I think I ended up most of these.

From some of your photos, it sure looks like you did. So much goodness!

 

[5aces]

I sold my PNY set because I didn’t like the inlay design at all, but I regret selling them because of the colors and definitely because of the sound and feeling.

 

[Changster]

I think I ended up most of these.

I’m quite positive of that, lol.

Sick chips. Those secondary 1K’s are just so so so so nice.

 

[Eriks]

This thread makes me sad. I don’t even have a picture of my CDIs...

I regret selling the PNY cash set. The ones were the best shuffling chip that I have ever owned. My other regret was the Samurai Palace cash set. I have since reacquired that

 

[Jeevansluck]

This thread is a terrible idea.

I could see your point for sure. The more experience and time into the hobby you got, the worst the idea of this thread becomes. Unless you are @ovo , who clearly doesn't sell chips and is immune to these ideas of "regret"

However, for us noobs who aspire to build nice collections, this thread is a stark reminder of what not to do once some chips are acquired. I personally love this thread. It's threads like these that have made me turn into a chip collector. Keep all that I can and just add to my collection. Not really selling, and no chance of anymore regret and heartache.

Traded a King's Castle TRK set for an equivalent mint Paulson Aurora Star Cash set. I didn't know what I had at the time. Now I'm sad all the time.

 

[ChipEnvy]

My only regrets are have to do with not getting enough 'value' out of some of the sets I've sold.


***Edit***
Oh crap... I forgot (PTSD?), I really regret selling my Maximillion set with the real $5's.

 

[wolfpack]

I had a mixed casino cash set of HHR ASM I miss, I think mainly becuase you don;t see as many ASM casino chips

Had 250 $1 chips from the Clover Club prohibition era speakeasy, should have never sold them

I came really close to pulling the trigger on those when you sold them but didn't. Fantastic little micro set.

300 MGM Detroit fracs and blue chip cash set...

Oh and this bahamia set

Blah...

 

[grantc54]

I don't regret selling any of my chips as I don't generally sell the chips I buy. I often get surprised how quickly people buy chips "they've always wanted" and then sell them right away or a few weeks later. Are peoples chipping bankrolls that shallow?

Now if the subject was regretting not buying a set or more of certain chip when I had a chance there would be many!

 

[DrBill]

Not sure how up to date you are with card collecting but I was really big into it and still am for the most part. The cards are drop dead gorgeous man. You are right, as I don’t think they would last multiple games in use.

Awesome cards! I collect as well. Where did you get those shelves?

 

[Goldfish]

I regret nothing. Ask me again when I sell all my Jack Detroit to fund a custom CPC.

I just sold the majority of my jack set........ already missing it. Especially seeing it in use in a home game in my area....

 

[Lil Tuna]

Only set I ever sold was my HSCs. They were great chips but I helped 3 or 4 other chippers fill some holes. That helped ease the remorse a bit.

No ragrets regarding chips I’ve sold...only ragrets are regarding chips I didn’t buy.

Wow! Those are some amazing chips

 

[pltrgyst]

Chips I regret selling? Easy -- all of them.

The 360 Blue Chip quarters niggle me now and then when someone posts a pic, but I could never figure out a mixed set that those spots would fit in with.

I guess the only set that, if I had them back, I wouldn't sell again, is the Horseshoe Gardenas. The only weak spot in that set was having to choose between the $20s and the $25s to put into play...and the shaped inlay $25s always won.
