*WARNING - Potentially scary thread*
Feel free to include basses, but leave out things like recrding gear. I set myself a budget when I decided to overhaul my setup, and kept nothing but a few pedals. I'm yet to buy the amp but I've stuck to the budget fairly well. I've gone with 'at cost' values, but you can decide to go with a 'current market value' version if you prefer.
Guitars £950
Archtop £350
Solidbody electric £500
Pedals £420
Diago board £75
Power Supply £45
T rex replica £110
Korg DT10 £40
Zoom Ultrafuzz £40
Zoom Power drive £40
Mike Booster £30
Proco rat £40
Amps £530
(not yet purchased amp) £400
Cabinet £130
Total £1,800
My target budget was £2,000, leaving enough room to buy a nice trem or ocatve pedal. I plan on selling some of the dirt pedals once I get the amp and can see which work best with my setup, so maybe both.

Shabba.
I'm only going to include my live guitar setup, I don't even want to think about how much I blew on misc gear altogether.
Approximate values based on how much they'd be new. I got a few deals here and there, but after losing value from trade ins and so forth, this is about right:
Jazzmaster - $1400
Custom guitar (backup) - $750
EHX Double Muff - $60
Ibanez TS808 - $170
ZVex BoR (soon) - $160
MXR Phase 90 - $80
MXR Micro Amp - $80
Boss TU-2 - $100
Twin Reverb - $800
Total
$3600
But hey. I have something to show for it. I didn't blow that money on drugs or alcohol. But I still need a car. :/
(edit: probably another $2000 with my other gear included (unused amps, pedals, my acoustic guitar, etc.)

sole purpose of my post is to give me some hope in case I go bankrupt and need to live of equipment selling for some time.
I will post the value it costed for me to buy and I will counterbalance their actual value depending on their condition in the end.
prices in euros
fender jaguar 650
fender tele 72 deluxe 750
gretsch g5129 680
oscar schmidt autoharp 90
carl martin compressor 210
big muff ny 60
carl martin the fuzz 140
carl martin MKIII distortion 110
danelectro tuna melt 20
boss ps-3 80
arion tuner 40
ehx dmm 175
line6 dl4 + exp.pedal 275
boss rc-2 160
george l's cables 150
(not used but still in hard times could buy some chips)
danelectro fab dist 15
boss pw-2 power driver 40
vox ac15h1tv 1150
thats around 4800 euros or 3750 pounds or 7200$
I guess I could make something like 3000 euros from that at least.
hmm, if i spend wisely i could take half a year off work when i quit music...
