Ever heard of buyer's remorse? I get SELLER'S remorse from getting rid of cameras I wish I'd kept!

Olympus M.Zuiko 14‑42mm f/3.5‑5.6 EZ.

Buyer’s remorse is that feeling you get when you splash out on a new purchase and then suddenly get the feeling it’s not as good as you thought – or that you’ve spent too much money on something that, now you’ve got it, you’re no longer itching to own.

Yeah, I get that. But what I get is seller's remorse, with the associated gear re-buying syndrome. I sell some gear, wish I hadn’t, and very often buy it again. I have kind of got that under control now, but it has been a serious problem, especially with my Micro Four Thirds cameras.
