Has anybody regretted upgrading and letting something go ???

There are a few scopes that I've owned, parted with and then missed later. Strangely the one that jumps to mind most often is my old TAL 100RT which I bought new in December 1999. It was quite quirky in the usual TAL way and very traditional in its looks but it peformed very nicely and it just so much looked the part. Even though I have two very fine 4 inch refractors now (a Vixen ED and a Takahashi Fluorite) I still look longingly at the pictures of the older TAL 100's when they come up for sale
