Hi...my first post



I have about 12 key boards that that were intended for the consoles of MRI machines made by Advanced Input Devises. these were freebees, new in original packaging but have been in a cow pasture on a pallet in the open for a number of years.

I did google searches and called the manufacturer, they are over 10 years old and the MRI they were designed for is "probably" no longer used.

they sold new for $3200 each.

My question,
Due to being in the rain and elements, I do not think it's appropriate to try and sell them as repair parts.

do these have a resale value above the mylar sheets I see on ebay?

should I knock off the IC chips and toss the rest in with the steel.

Thanks in advance for any input and opinion
