Ever regret selling a pedal you never used?

I recently sold SWF #3 and had pangs of remorse as I boxed it up even though I hardly used it. I also listed MGMV #5 for sale and am having second thoughts even though I rarely use it. It's almost like I would rather have them and not use them than not have them. Has anyone else experienced this?

I can relate. I get sentimentally attached to things so when I was selling off some pedals earlier, it was kind of hard because I remembered using them for a gig or something in the past and it's almost like having the pedal makes the memory more real. But for the most part, the regret subsides. The flip side is selling one pedal can open up the opportunity to buy a new pedal (or other gear).
PS The SWF will receive lots of love and rock 'n roll in my possession.

Selling my PPF was a touch choice. I decided that I just wasn't a fuzz guy, but boxing and shipping still made me think twice!

sure, usually happens when you change another part of your rig and cant quite find the right other peices to match...
new speaker cab that works better with your amp, but now your distortion sounds wrong so you immidiately start wondering how the pedals you HAD would have worked......
this is why i kept a too big stable of pedals around for so long
but now Im pretty confidant I can tweek or stack the BJF herd into just about anything i could ever need ---
