What is the one item you regret not buying for your collection?

There was this rare vinyl record I saw at a record shop a few years ago. It was the first pressing of The Beatles' White Album, and it was in near-mint condition. The price was reasonable, but I hesitated, and someone else snatched it up. Ive never seen another one like it since.

One regret I have is not buying an old-school arcade cabinet. I used to go to this retro gaming store that had a Street Fighter II cabinet, and they were selling it for 500. I kept saying I'd come back for it, and then one day, it was gone. Those are worth so much more now.

Its crazy, but I regret not buying a custom-painted Star Wars figure I found on Etsy a while ago. The artist had done a really detailed version of Darth Vader with extra accessories, but I didnt think I needed it. Now theyre out of stock, and I still think about it every time I look at my collection.

I had the chance to buy a rare signed copy of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone from a local bookshop. The price was higher than what I expected, but I didnt know how valuable signed books could get. Now, I cant even find signed copies for less than 1000!

I passed on a vintage concert poster from the 1970s, featuring The Rolling Stones. It was in good condition, and the price was reasonable, but I didnt know much about the poster market at the time. Now I regret not grabbing itit wouldve been worth a lot today.

I had the opportunity to buy an old, limited edition Super Mario plush doll when I was at a collector's shop. I was looking for something more functional, like a video game or figurine, but now I cant find anything like it anywhere.

Years ago, I had the chance to get a signed comic book by Stan Lee. It was expensive, but I should have taken the leap. Now, theyre so much more valuable, and I kick myself every time I think about it.

My regret is not buying a set of limited-edition Star Wars movie posters when they were re-released. I was a kid at the time and couldnt afford them, but now those posters are worth a small fortune, and I still see them pop up in auctions occasionally.

I let a set of rare trading cards slip through my fingers years ago. They were from an obscure 90s show, but I just couldnt see the value at the time. Now, theyre one of the most sought-after collectors items for fans of that show.

I was at a garage sale and found an antique clock that had been in the family of a local celebrity. I thought it looked nice but didnt know its true value. I passed on it, and later I heard it was worth a few thousand dollars at auction.
