'if' you don't want BOTH, then do one of two things: either see if the smart center will 'take it in on trade' which i would think they would and give you a decent price OR buy the second and sell the one you don't want and put a few bucks in your pocket.

up to you of course, but if it were me i wouldn't be looking to make too much on selling one and make sure it's to someone that won't try and sell it for MORE!
