Has anyone finally decided to sell their Turntable and Vinyl collection?


It Maybe a little strange to ask this question here since clearly this is a forum for folks still loving and using Vinyl.
So I am looking for some feedback from folks that play very little of their LPs these days and have decided to sell all of it (or already have). I have thought about it for years seems like a hassle trying to sell your TT and or your record collection, that is mainly why mine stays put (not because I use it).

Anyway if you have sold - (Not if you’re keeping it forever)

Have you regretted it?
Or is to nice to reduce the clutter and happily move on?

Some people would never sell their analog rig and collection, I get that.

Will never sell my vinyl. Been collecting since I was 15. I am 64. Over the years I sold a few out of my collection to used record stores for store credit, which was twice what cash value from store was. I also have a great CD collection, but I am selling some of those. I do 2 or 3 record shows a year and have close to 2,000 lps in my personal collection and about 300-400 that I take to shows. I still buy alot of vinyl - no CDs any more. Machete don’t stream! Never will. Got all the great music I need. I look for the deals now and buy very selectively. Just got Larry and Lee, and Ritenour Wesbound for about half price at Elusive Disc. I go through my collection before shows and pull what I don’t play at all or very often. I like to keep it where I have nothing but great condition and great (to me and my wife) music. I also have made a list of who my records and various systems go to when I die. It will go to my long time music buds. 
Speaking of Italian Prog...did u sell any Perigeo? I have 3 lps by them that I enjoy. 

@gosta - thank you for the suggestion, but I am set. I agree totally that discovering new music is a huge part of the hobby and a large part of my collection was through buying music not previously heard. Back in the day you just could not go to AllMusic Guide and listen to different artist/similar artist. Plus at this stage I don’t need to be purchasing additional equipment for more formats. Now I would benefit from a new CD player! LOL!
