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.

I always kept vinyl records and turntables even when the compact disc took hold in the early 80s; at that time I was still a young boy but the marvelous digital technology that promised wonders did not bewitch me, I continued on the analogical road even though, in later times the cd player was next to my turntable.

"but celebrity actors don’t work for vinyl"

Elijah Wood works for vinyl.

Oops posted about Bob Dylan in the wrong thread! Haha should have gone to bed. My sincere apologies
Sold off half my Lp collection as I built up my Cd library
Was very careful to keep all my 50's and many 60's discs including the very first Lp I ever purchased "Warm Brandy" by Dolores Gray
Skip forward to 2019 and my 11yr old grandson when visiting immediately  races upstairs to my second system.
He powers it up and on goes Vinyl. He is absolutely fascinated by playing music from a rotating disc with a turntable
I fear for my SME arm,cartridge, and disc's .... but hell why not
He may one day join the Audio community

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.
