to add on to this...

space is a good reason to sell. If you have synth debt, that is a great reason to sell. A lack of time? Well...if you don't have time otb, how will you have time itb?

There are lots of things that come into play and we random online folk can't, and shouldn't, know all the factors. Some wives, they aren't real fond of the competition, so that is a great reason to sell, if only to keep the peace.

After all they are only things. Perhaps wonderful things, but things nevertheless.

I would not sell them for cash though personally. That is a path to regret for me. The cash will be gone and then you'll have neither synth nor cash (though it does depend on what the cash is for and what you sell).
