Totally understand your 'empty nest' syndrome however, you got 2 terrific 301s for the price of one They are lots of fun to sew with and also very portable - I think it is the only machine (of that era) that Singer put a handle on to carry and it pops in and out of a larger cabinet so easily! They are "gems"!!
Give yourself some time and then when you've saved some more pennies and are ready, you can look for a "special" FW - maybe an earlier year than the one you use or a centennial badged one or a white or tan one - there's always options and the hunt can be fun

I sell stuff all the time. There are some real odd people show up. Some are more memorable than others. There are a couple I regret selling - I just figure another one might come along that I like as well.

I have 2 Featherweights and 2 301's. My 301's are in cabinets. and I love sewing on them in there cabinets. I love all of them and I know you will be happy with your 301's. They can be portable or in a cabinet. Great to sew on and I love the slant needle. Enjoy!!

I totally agree with Rodney, I have both featherweight and a 301(I love my big sister the 301) My fav to take was the 301 over my featherweight (don't ask me why I just liked her better) how ever then came along my Lotus and well She is my all time favorite take to class machine, so light and portable and just a sweetie. Don't get me started on machines I just love to sew.
