Question:
Is there anything halachically wrong for one to sell his chometz through two different Rabbis.
(it comes out that two different shluchim are selling the same chometz)?
Answer:
There is nothing halachically wrong with doing this. Whichever Rov ended up selling the chometz first was the one who actually sold it. I remember seeing Horav Zaidel Epstein zt”l sell his chometz to two different Rabbonim.
