Pedals you sold and repurchased

I'm pretty good about letting go when I let go, but glad I re-snagged a Moog MF-101 LPF right after they discontinued them at about 50% of what they go for these days. Back in the day I had some great stuff that I purged at a point of disinterest that I'd gladly have back, but won't pay the price that it fetches these days since we've come so far.

Aphex Punch Factory 1404. The original model:

I've had at least 5 or 6 BAssmasters, BassBallses, and Octron2s!!! I keep either needing the money more than the sound, or i just fall out of love with the sound again. Reminds me, I'm about due for another BAssmaster.... LOL
I had the OG Maestro Brassmaster back in 70's growing up(I was a Squire obsessive). I think I let it go about 20 years ago. I'm about to pull the trigger on a new clone, just need to research which one . . .
 
Zoom b3n

One of my dogs passed away, so I sold it to my local L and M to help cover the money that I needed. 10 min after I sold it I rented it back again because I didn't want to risk loosing it. Know own it again and am debating selling it because I just picked up a Fender Rumble Stage 800
 
Analogman Chorus. Bought one with toggle, sold it, got the mini version with fixed deep setting and blend control, but later sold it for a Providence Anadime Bass Chorus. One pedal I sold years ago that I sometimes miss is the EHX Bass Micro Synth. That thing paired with the MXR Bass Auto Q gave me some amazing sounds I used back in the day.

I've done this a few times.

Big Ear NYC Loaf - Felt like I didn't need a fuzz pedal the first time. Bought it again a couple years later, now my favorite fuzz!
MXR Univibe - Really liked it but sold it to fund other gear. Bought it again a few years later, didn't like it as much as I remembered. Sold it twice.
Raygun FX Bass Soda Drive+ - Not a bad drive by any means, but sold because I felt I could find something better. Bought it again a couple of years later because I doubted my previous judgment. Sold... Again.
Retro-Sonic Analog Delay - I've owned and sold this pedal twice.... and now I want it again. Serious dark lush tones.

Bought/Sold/Bought/Sold

Darkglass VMT: Tried very hard to love this pedal. Beautiful pedal, technically sounds great, just couldn't get it to do what I wanted I guess.

Maxon SD-9: Honestly love this pedal, one of the coolest sounding distortions around. However, due to low frequency loss it's uses were just too limited.
