I purchased a 3 speed Raleigh Sports back in the late '60s. Soon after, I removed the fenders, rear carrier and chain guard. They've been lost since. The bike is still in my possession and works well, but it's not worth fully restoring without those parts. I wish I had thrown all those original parts in a box and kept them. 🙁
 
my old Concord Blue Devils hat... i wore that thing everyday when i was in band, it's just a crazy sentimental thing...

all my old toys too...
 
I wrote ~12 poems in a book for schoolwork, I have 4 of them still, but I lost the book and the poems, and I really wish I still had them. Some of my poetry I'm fairly proud of.
 
Hm, I can't think of anything in particular I wish I had saved. I do have my white stuffed rabbit, its very cute, beaten, and abused but I love it. 🙂

I still have a bunch, still have all my he-man, ninja turtles, and transformers... all in my fathers attic somewhere😛

I miss my house too🙂
 
my old soccer uniforms. i played soccer from the age of four until i went to college. it was such a big part of my life and i would love to see all those uniforms again--maybe the shoes too.

for all you sports card 'reminiscers', my entire collection of basketball. football and baseball card are in protective sleeves in my parents attic. i dont remember all of them, but i know they include rookie cards of mark mguire, jerry rice and michael jordan.
 
The entire collection of Starriors I had (including that cobra fortress). I think I may had my Star Wars & G.I. Joe collection stolen while in storage at my aunt's old place as well. 🙁

Oh well, still have Transformers, a load of Hot Wheels and countless other toys still in good condition to remind me of my childhood and to pass onto my future kids when ready. 🙂
 
I once worked for a vocational school who had some Tektronix Oscilloscopes for their electronics classes. The school dumped that class due to lack of students. The new director at the time didn't know anything about pricing on those things so they were going to just throw everything away. They said I could take what I wanted and dump the rest of it. I took home about 5 oscilloscopes. Was going to sell them, but didn't know how much they were worth. I ended up tossing them when I moved. Then a year later, while working for another company, I spoke to the hardware engineer (when I saw him using a Tektronix oscilloscope). I found out that those things were worth around 20K each. DOHHHHH! Should've fleabayed them.:|
 
My late 60's to mid 70's Marvel & D.C. comics collection. Gave then to friends when I moved. I just want to kick myself. Find out years later that some of the issues I had are worth a lot.

Also some coins/currency from different countries I collected during the 70's. 🙁
 
my innocence and naivete.

it's all you guys' fault, too. now I can stare at tub girl and orgrish all day, and go off and eat a full meal. geesh.

(because of some luck on my part, I have never seen goatse 🙂 )

actually, I might've seen the goatse guy once, but I can't verify it because I'm not going to the website. (it was a flash animation and it was some stick figures dancing, then it zoomed out)
