I've bought and sold a fair bit of stuff over the past few years, and I don't think that I regret selling anything.
That said, right now I'm very much back-and-forth with the decision about keeping my Zeiss Ikon. It's off getting some warranty work done and I haven't missed it nearly as much as I thought I might. It's a great camera, but the M6 covers pretty much the same ground.

I hate going through the turmoil of making the decision of sell/not sell/buy/not buy. Drives me mad sometimes.
Agree with the others that the Hexar AF is a good camera. I Have the Silver and the lens is superb. Thing is it doesn't get used that much, yet it's my camera of choice if travelling light, so it only gets used a few times a year.
My Nikon 35Ti went in the classifieds last week (no offers btw, so off to auction) for the same reason, it just sits there looking nice but not being used. Got to be one of the sharpest lenses I've ever used though.
Doesn't stop me buying though and I've just added a new Olympus E-420 + 14-42 zoom for less than I paid for my Canon G7 or Fuji F30.
It won't be stopping there either, as I have a 25mm pancake lens on order for it now.

I just bought my second Hexar for $418 with flash in very nice condition. I lost my first one a few weeks ago on vacation.
If you're in Santa Barbara, or Sequoia National Park, maybe you'll see it lying around somewhere.
