Are there any domains that you wished you renewed? Maybe you registered something on a whim, and it turned out to be a hit - just more than a year later.

I'll start off - I let TwoFactorAuthentication.com drop; I think it's worth at least $500 now.

Anybody else?

SitkaSpruce.com - probably not too valuable but it is exactly the tree name on the west coast of Canada + I work in forestry

last year before the 2012 summer olympic games city was announced I let drop Britain2012.com and England2012.net. I kept a bunch of similar names for New York, didn't think England had a great chance and had a lot of other names to renew, but look what happened. Those are probably worth low xxxx now at least.

I actually SOLD these:

glittergraphix.us (now I own a layouts site...and this name received a TON of traffic)
nbcdealornodeal.com (OVT with ext went up to 900+ the next month)

Years ago, I lost Canada247.com and a bunch of others.

I think I changed service providers and didn't get the renewal reminders.
:(

Too many to list.. My biggest regrets are sales - Fitness.org, Television.org and Diary.org.

The new owners are probably here on dnforum.

Most of my regrets would be in registrations, not expirations.
