There are plenty of things I can let go of for cheap—small pieces that others can enjoy without me feeling much loss. But then there are the items that feel different. The ones that carry memories, comfort, or a quiet kind of meaning. Letting go of those is never simple.
I’ve had things that were once worth almost nothing, only to become priceless years later. Shantae was one of them. My Fantasy GK Studios Gardevoir was another. Watching their value rise wasn’t just surprising—it reminded me how close I came to losing something that meant far more to me than money ever could.
Because selling something you care about isn’t just a transaction. It’s letting go of a moment, a feeling, a piece of yourself. Some items hold stories, effort, and emotion—and once they’re gone, you can’t always get them back.
