Our stuff "went missing" on many occasions, including my mom tossing some of my comic collection in the fireplace (let me tell you, as a grade schooler, that sticks with you!). I'm one of those people though who cannot have or own something (pegboard of sealed hotwheels and very few other exceptions aside), and not use it. As an example: https://youtu.be/1oao3_q5QdY I never ever thought I'd own this (single in the video) - for a couple years I would regularly put in bids below the average going price, to promptly be outbid - just to get in on the action, and say I bid on this; I also own the other "holy grail" single (cd; retail version) of theirs and have played it many times... What's the point in owning something if you can't use it - this absolutely goes for old toys - and is also why I never pay top dollar for vintage toys. If I buy a vintage toy, the first thing that happens is my kids get to play with it...
