It's a pinball for me too: White Water that cleaned up oh so nice and I had tuned just right. Got it for a great price since I was the first to show up with cash in hand. Sold it for a reasonable profit but still regret it. "Shouldn't have sold me, ya wiener!"

I've cut quite a few games loose over the years, including several I had considered as being "must-haves", but I can't say that I have any major regrets.

It's on Ebay now.
wow- I can't really think of anything.
Especially something that meets the original criteria- the EXACT game.
I've sold some stuff that was neat, but a simple replacement would be nice.

My very first game, an upright Star Trek was destroyed, but the guts live on inside of my cockpit.

none, because i haven't had to sell any of my cabs yet! I am running out of room, though!

Made a deal on it with another KLOVer before I even got the game. I had never played it, knew it was desirable, and was more interested in what I could get for it.
Once I had it, saw how nice it was, and played it a bunch, I figured I would've kept it had I waited to see it before letting it get away...

Only 1 so far:

Had to sell it because I was moving and it was too much to keep it with me.
Not a great pin but mine was so clean and I always will have a soft spot for the back glass.
It did go to a great home, a friend of mine in Nor Cal picked it up

Im surprised ZF hasnt chimed in..he has a few games in his arcade that he once sold to someone else...
The two I want to buy back the most if I knew where they were are my Dedicated Frenzy and MACH III cockpit. The MACH was like new and the Frenzy only had a couple of splinters on the bottom, seriously almost new.
Are you speaking of the DK and MM you sent me?
If so, I concur. Nice. Very nice.

I'd love to get my dedicated Double Dragon,Captain America and the Avengers,and NHL Open Ice back.BIG mistake letting them go,especially the very versatile DD cab.Could swap out lots of boards in that thing.

For me it'd have to be a lot of them that were in my old collection, ummmm:
PP u/r
PPII c/p
Galaga
Ms. Pac
Nintendo Vs cab with all the games I had for it (goonies/topgun/smb/excitebike.)
My lovely and great Brave Firefighters
Galaga 88
I have gotten another Gyruss so I'm cool on that even though its not as nice as my last one but hey its all good.
As soon as I get this move done then its back to the grind on saving money to buy more games....I cant wait.

EDOT and Joust. Had to sell them to buy my wife an engagement ring. She likes to remind me of that every now and then too. Oh, the pain!!!
my mint killer instinct dedicated, cuz it was mint, the one i have now isnt to bad though.
comet pinball... kind of hehe i didnt wanna move the arcade machine on big move, some how i thought at the time i wouldnt have to use and expensive moving truck if i didnt have that, in the end it woulda been like pissing in the ocean but atleast my friend bought it

My first regret was selling my Mata Hari pinball game.. it was an solid-state game but still used the xylophone tone bars to make bell noises. Sold it at a USAmusement auction for FAR too little - I didn't bid it up because I didn't think it was ethical, will NEVER make that mistake again.
Second regret was selling my Gyruss cocktail. Fortunately, the seller, years later, is either letting me store or letting me have, some games including Gyruss, so happy ending there!
