Which to get rid of, TD145 MKii or Dual 1219?

I have those two turntables, and am thinking of selling one. Which would I sell?
Well, for my best interest, I would rather keep one that performs better but may fetch less money, and one that may potentially increase its value over the years. (Well, I don't expect much price hike since they are both so so tables.)
Reason for selling? Upgrade, upgrade, ...
Thanks for your input.

In my honest opinion, the Dual 1019 is the best of all the Duals. I have owned eight Duals, and currently own two, the 1019 and a 601. The TD145 doesn't match the Dual, also in my opinion. I currently own two TD150s and a TD165. On occasion, I listen to the 1019, but I am well past the others.

Your opinion may differ, and that is fine. That's why variety exists, right? ;)

If you are really saying you want to seriously upgrade then consider selling both, adding some more money, and buying a top notch table. I am sure the Analog guys will be happy to guide you to the best table , with value taken into consideration, at your eventual price point.

Mechans,

Good suggestion.
I would probably need to sell both and save more bucks to go for something noticeably better.

You can replace both with a CD Player.

A very cheap CD Player.

What if you keep 1 table as a backup? You just never know.
