Expensive pedals that have been worth it

Its already been mentioned, but the thorpyfx fat general is probably the best pedal i have ever used - i know compressors are not exactly the most fun, but it just does what it should so well, its insane! (and easily worth the money)

MF 104 MSD - was a 2017 moogfest build, one of 27.  Was a great pedal, but always feel they are better with synths vs guitars. 

MF105 MIDI Murf - totally unique and still finding new sounds 2 yrs later. 

Cali 76 stacked.

Nocturne El Pescadoro. '40s-'50s Gibson amp preamp + a vibey reverb. If I can't play my old Gibson GA-50T combo, I'm using this pedal.

that's next on the list with possible the fluid drive

Origin RevivalTrem & Strymon Iridium, into headphones - the perfect tiny practise board, nothing much to fiddle with, just play that glorious sound ...

Have had a few good scores: a Timmy back when they were £100, a used El Cap for £120, closeout large box Fat General, etc. However, the only thing I consider indispensable is the Chasetone Secret Preamp. Transformative bit of kit. Love it so much, I ordered a spare. 

When we go back to gigging, it'll be TU2, a couple of Mooers and the SP.

Good to hear this as I'm pretty keen on ordering one....

I traded a car for a few pedals a few years back, plus a few bob. One of them was a boss DD2, and I understand why they command a bit of a premium. Best delay pedal going perhaps?
