Default Please help me decide what to keep - decision must be made quick!!!

POk. Here's the sitution: I am a Chanel girl totally and a collector (have 12 a the moment)... but must get rid of one or the other of the following, each of which is still in the HG category for me:

really really would love your help, as i am vascillating back and forth:

1: Chanel large Reporter, tan with black "partial" CC on it....adore this bag, it was over $3,000 before they discontinued it a couple of years ago, i got it for 2/3 off that.....love everything about it and its a rather important part of my Chanel family. The one drawback? Its easily and regularly faked.......

2. My Fendi Zucca Spy --- also one of my HG's (and the only Fendi i have) - i love the shape of the Spy..always have.....and the rich tortoise handles.....


omg,,,,help!!!!!!!

(can get more $ for Reporter but am more emotionally attached to it, although i use the Spy more often)

now that i have driven everyone reading this crazy, please offer suggestion(s)??!!

so many thanks in advance.....

Get rid of the fendi b/c you can buy it again at a later time. The chanel is discontinued so if you loose it you might not be able to get it back at some point. Don't worry about it being faked, you know that yours is not and that is what counts.
