What should I do with my left over fingerprint scanners?

I've bought some broken iPhone 6's that weren't able to be salvaged into working phones so I'm using them as parts. What should I do with the extra finger print scanners though? Is there any way I can make money off of them or should I go ahead and toss them?

The Touch ID is serialized and paired to the CPU (and some other IC's) so they cant be used for Touch ID on any other device.

They still work as a Home Button though so it may be worth keeping them as replacements for "button-only" repairs.
