Default What to do with core transmissions?

I have 5 th400's, 3 700R4's 1 th350 short, 1 th350C long, 1 4L80E 4x4 1999 date. All have been disassembled, inspected, frictions removed and put back together. They are all rebuildable.
Any idea if these are worth anything?
I also have a bunch of misc stuff, sprag type direct drums for th400, gears, pumps, gaskets, plates. I already threw a ton of gear sets and shafts away.
The main hardparts supplier around here was bought out and torn down.
I called a guy today who was quite an ******* and said they are obsolete and worth nothing.
I listed them on ebay a few hours ago for local pick up only $500 for it all or sell parts, but it all has to go quick I need to get it out I may be moving.
What should I do?

I sold both 4L60e's that I had to my local tranny builder. He snapped em up quick because he was having a hard time finding late model cores. 150 ea for a quick 300 bucks in my pocket. Might be a place to start or the local metal recycling yard if you really need to get rid of things.

Heres the ebay item number 300174298240 , my presentation sucks I know.
I'll put them all on a pallet and box in the sides and top with plywood if someone wants to arrange a shipper to come pick it up.
I have a feeling I'm going to end up dropping them at the local junkyard.

I'd say craigs list or give your # to a local tranny shop. It might take awhile, but they do suck to store...

Here are a few pics, big ones. I had a ton more gear sets for all trans listed, shafts, drums, etc. This is all I have left, does the price seem fair?
BTW these are rebuildable cores. A few people messaged me to ask if any of these worked or needed to be rebuilt. They are guaranteed rebuildable, my word is the only guarantee I can offer. http://www.jayscarsite.homestead.com/misc.html

PM sent.
It's real hard to believe how many people from here and ebay are asking me if any of these REBUILDABLE CORES will work if they just put them in as is
