Thoughts on this drone switch...

I have a Phantom 3 Standard and a DJI Spark, both are like new, never crashed and function perfectly. I was heading to a really scenic park today to get some flying in and brought both drones. As I was carrying both drone cases I thought I love the spark because it is easier to carry but only has a 1080 video camera, and I love the P3S for its better video capabilities and smoother flight, if I put them both together I would have a Mavic, and maybe I should just sell both of these drones and buy a Mavic.
The P3S has original battery with about 55 charges on it, upgraded the phone holder to an Inspire type holder, carry case, remote, and charger. The Spark has remote control, 3 batteries, carry case, charger, extra props. and has been 100% perfect. Does it make sense to consolidate into one? Will I be able get near the price of a Mavic?
 
Hmmm... The P3S might fetch $200 - $275. Used Sparkler FM combo (+a third battery) could get you about $625 - $650. So, if you sold both you may get close to Mavic cost.
Of course, you realize that drones are like cars in that once it is turned on, the value declines.
