Default How Often?

We all know what it is like selling a beloved card, whether it is the Babe, Lou, Tyrus or a common that has some personal connection and the severe angst that brings. There is a feeling of emptiness that is hard to get over.
But I wonder how many people at a later date repurchased that same card? I know I have. Several years ago I sold a nice T206 bat on Cobby and felt I had lost a family member. Fortunately, I was able later to pick up a replacement at the Nat'l at a reasonable level. Now I fear it would be hard for me to replicate, given the explosion of T206 Cobb prices. Any similar stories?
I know Aaron S. has made a career out of this.

I sold my green cobby maybe 3 years ago for what I thought was a pretty crazy price...I had owned it for maybe 17 years prior to that.

I suffered from withdrawl symptoms and eventually repurchased one...albeit a lesser example.

Traded a T227 Cobb to N54 member for a T206 Cobb. Fair deal and all but that card will eventually call back to me for sure!

I sold all 4 T206 Cobb poses in PSA6 about 13yrs ago for what (at the time) I thought was a good price. I didn't get sellers remorse until around 3-4 yrs later and started looking to pick them back up, sadly I just couldn't get over the hurdle of new prices and with prices what they are today I'll never get them back in that grade. I can't bring myself to pick up a lower grade knowing at one time I had them all in a 6
