I (29F) received a very expensive designer purse as a Christmas gift. I’ve never been super interested in purses, I have a semi nice backpack style purse that I’ve carried for 5 years. I’ve never expressed an interest in this designer brand, but the family member that gave me the gift loves the brand, has multiple pieces. I think they assumed I’d love it as much as they do.

I lost my job last month, and have been struggling massively financially. I see the purse sitting there everyday and know it could help me cover next month’s rent, but I don’t want to hurt my family member. They are definitely the type of person to get offended over this, and I’m scared to damage the relationship. But I know I’ll never carry this bag, and it feels ridiculous to sit and look at it in my closet while I’m struggling to figure out rent.

So, WIBTA if I sold this bag?
