I think the Milwaukee value stays up from what I've seen. So reselling them shouldn't be a problem. I'm on the Dewalt platform and I recently have been going thru some difficulty with the flexvolt batteries but ive used them for three years now but dewalt customer service is so amazing I'm not to worry and I know they'll take care of me. From my experience I've used dewalt seems like forever and they are so amazing to me and my crew . We do carpentry work and remodeling. I say you cant go wrong with dewalt. Milwaukee and makita are amazing as well . But I only say from experience with dewalt
