A year or two after the Black Album came out I sold it to a friend because I was so pissed about it. Until it came out Metallica were speed/thrash-Metal for me and I was so dissapointed about the commercial/low-speed stuff on it at that time. Some month later I regretted what I did and ask my friend to sell it back to me and he did. I am very happy about that because I bought the album on the day it was released in 1991 and I still know how excited I was the time before it came out (thats the reason why I was so dissapointed when listening to it).
I've made peace with the Black Album CD, it still stands on my CD shelf and everytime I take it to put it in the CD player and see its scratched case it reminds me of those days.

Re: What Albums Have You Sold That You Regret Now?
I never get rid of anything, which is why I have a heap of CDs I have never played. Never know when I will be thankful I held on to them. I think hoarding runs in my family.
The only CD I remember selling to a second hand store was Offspring's Americana CD. I had this distinct feeling that I would never listen to it more than once - and I was right. But that's getting off the topic as it's meant to be about albums we've sold and actually regret.
I did prevent a friend doing the unthinkable. He now lives in Korea and while he was here in Melbourne he wanted to get rid of his LPs. There were maybe 100. One of them was a Metallica vynil boot called For Metallians Only (Grugahalle, Essen 1987). I refused to let him get rid of it and I am now its legal guardian till he decides to move home.
