Ordered equipment to burn my own eproms, I got 2 165 ecms should I keep a spare?

Im through with troubleshooting my engine problems, my problems lead me to believe its the eprom so instead of ordering a new chip I decided it was a better idea to get the equipment to make my own (after reading volumes of posts on the subject).

If the problem is the eprom I should be set and Ill have a spare 165 ecm since I thought originally my ecm was toast.

Should I keep my "spare" ecm or should I sell it? You guys are the pro's here and I respect your opinions.

Never hurts to have a spare, they easily fit under the seat. Can also use it for a test bench setup. This is the best part of OEM ECMS, they are inexpensive.
