Take them to Quartzsite, AZ in January. You'll sell them in a day. Recycle that junk into cash! 
Seriously, we often get calls from desert rats (picture some occupy wall street types with wiry hair and leathery, dust covered skin from dwelling in the desert too long) looking for used or busted modules.
