That old anvil I passed on 10 years ago still bugs me

I was reading this forum the other night and some guy was showing off his 150lb Fisher anvil he got for $200 at a farm auction. Made me remember the one I saw at a estate sale back in 2014 for $150 with a cast steel body and no face damage. I talked myself out of it saying I didn't need another anvil, and now I kick myself every time I see prices for similar ones. Any of you ever pass up a deal that still keeps you up at night?

That 150 bucks haunts me more than my ex-wife's lawyer bills.

Did you actually need it at the time or was it just a good deal?

You ever have that feeling where a deal seems too good to pass up but then you never actually use the thing? I got a buddy who bought a fancy air fryer on sale for like $80 and now it just sits in his cupboard collecting dust. @simonb92 sometimes the best deal is just walking away even if it stings a little.
