Well you can only scrap them now, You holding them in your hands whacks them like that. Trust me, I'm an Electronics Technology student at a Vocational School, when we deal with Computer Components, we always have anti-static straps on strapped to rubber mats so we have no electricity what so ever. You holding them ram sticks in your hands most likely whacked the components in the logic gate chips in the ram in turn whacked the whole board. But there is a possibility you might not of, test it. But for in future reference if you plan on reselling something invest in a anti-static wrist strap. (Cheap. Like 12 bucks). When I plan on reselling a processor and or any type of computer component, I'm always strapped in to either the case or rubber mat. Just my advice for ya bud.
