The one that got away

Is there any gear you had the chance to buy and regretted not buying? Some years back I was offered a Marantz 10b tuner for $600 and passed on it.

The seller was only a few miles away. I paid him the $375 he wanted. He also had a pair of DQ-20’s for another $375. Now I regret not buying those also!

Sansui AU 717/ TU 717, JBL L-166 Horizons, Philips AF-877 with a Shure V15 Type V. I don't miss my Ex, but I sure miss that system.
