Just curious to see what baits y'all have bought thinking they will be great but have never ended up throwing. I bought a buzzbait about 12 years ago with a 12" wire that I watched Bill Dance throw on one his shows. Never ended up using it and I just sold it over the weekend with some other tackle I sold on Facebook.
Another for me would be swim jigs. I bought about 5 different ones and just end up throwing chatterbaits in those situations I was planning on

I got a bunch of that, everybody does. Part of the addiction.

I have a lot of random dropshot baits that never get used, but would probably work pretty well. That's about it.

Ive got a bunch...
Prop Baits, jigs, swim jigs, swimbaits, buzzbaits.
I've thrown jigs a lot and only have ever caught 3 fish on one and it was off a bed in the spawn. Chunked a buzzbait for days and never a bite. Caught a few on a swimbait but not much confidence in it.
It may just be that I am not very versatile. I tend to pitch T-rigs and throw crankbaits. I bet I get 95% of my bites on those two techniques.

I own plenty now, so when I retire, I won't have to buy any more. That's when I'll use them all

A Rigs and 10 Xds for me! I have thrown the 10 XDs a couple times without a bite They pull so hard you don't need to catch a fish on them, they are fun enough to reel in by themselves 
See you on the lake and have a great day!

X2 X3 X4 there might be a limit on how many characters you can type on a post and I'm afraid I would be over the limit.
