I agree completely. The only radio that I sold (and want back) is a Kenwood
R-2000. That was my first HF radio and I sold it for money to buy my first
R-390A. It was an okay receiver and I wouldn't mind having it sit somewhere
in the house. It would be a good unit to loan someone who shows an interest
in HF. 

Other things that I've sold over the years and wish I had back are the
hundreds of paperbacks that I got rid of every time I was restationed in the
Army, and hundreds of record albums that I sold for a few dollars apiece. I
think I've rebought most of those paperbacks over the years.
