The previous thread was starting to go this direction, so I figured I'd give it it's own thread.
What awesome, incredible things have you sold, lost, or just failed to buy when you had the chance ?

I bought the first appearance of the Punisher at a flea market for .25 cents when I was a kid...and eventually traded it for a reprint of Harvey Kurtzman's Jungle Book.
Also, when I was a kid (in the 70's) I had 20.00$ and had to choose between a copy of X-Men #1 or Origins of Marvel Comics, Son of Origins and Bring on the Bad Guys.
I chose the books, figuring, the X-Men book was reprinted in Son of Origins anyway.

Back when I was around 12 I had a complete run (at that time) of Iron Man from 1-125 (+/- a few issues).... traded them all in for pennys so I could fill holes in my penny book.... not the expensive pennies (key or semi-key dates) Horrible choice...... *sigh*....

I've had as many get away as I've actually gotten successfully so the list would be too long...
