One of my sincere regrets is back in like '92 (I was 15), I traded one of his Bob Clemente cards for a box of 92 Fleer Ultra. Not the end of the world I guess, but not something I'll do again.

Sounds familiar, my dad gave me his cards (57-68 topps) some almost complete sets. They will stay with my family. I sold his perfect Nolan Ryan rookie, probably would have graded at least an 8 today, for 150$ to a seedy card shop around the time I was 13 or so. I can't even remember what I bought with the money, probably a bunch of comics or something. Dummy move for sure.
