Has anyone finally decided to sell their Turntable and Vinyl collection?


It Maybe a little strange to ask this question here since clearly this is a forum for folks still loving and using Vinyl.
So I am looking for some feedback from folks that play very little of their LPs these days and have decided to sell all of it (or already have). I have thought about it for years seems like a hassle trying to sell your TT and or your record collection, that is mainly why mine stays put (not because I use it).

Anyway if you have sold - (Not if you’re keeping it forever)

Have you regretted it?
Or is to nice to reduce the clutter and happily move on?

Some people would never sell their analog rig and collection, I get that.

Are you kidding?  My vinyl collection is a documentary to my life .... starting with my purchase at age 15 of my first two LP's from the Capital Records Club .... Kenton in Hi-Fi, and Rimsky-Korsakov's "Le Coq de Or" by the Pittsburgh Symphony.

I am hoping that Oberlin College, my alma mater, will take my collection after I die.  They maintain a pretty extensive record collection and playback lab for their Conservatory students.
rvpiano1 .... exactly.  It wasn't close in the late '80's early '90's.  Now I have my main system to the point that vinyl and sacd sound identical.  Looking ahead to this back in the 90's, I tried not to buy cd's that duplicated most of my vinyl collection .... Bob Dylan is perhaps the exception.  So I have a few that I can use to calibrate my system, but overall the two collections compliment one another.  1100 lp's and 1000+ cd's are enough .... both have their place, and both can be made to sound good (although some individual items never do.)
