John H.Ouch, Scott.
Mine is a non-vintage hockey set. A very nice 1971-72 OPC set that I collected as a 12-13 year old. I sold it in 1989 so that I could buy a bunch of cool new baseball, football and hockey cards. I got $160 for it when the Charlton catalog had it listed at $200. The first Beckett, a year later, had it at $750.
I started regretting it a year or two later and I finally broke down and bought a great condition set back roughly 10 years ago. With the few upgrades that it needed the replacement set wound up costing me about $1,000.
I won't even get into all of the childhood toys I also sold to finance my sports card buys in the early 90's. Sigh...
