TIL 306, TIL 308 displays

Digging through my old stuff, I've run across a couple of old TI
7-segment display chips. The TIL 306 is an internally-driven
seven-segment light-emitting-diode (LED) displays contain a BCD
counter, a four-bit
latch, and a decoder/LED driver in a single 16-pin package. The TIL
308 is an internally-driven seven-segment light-emitting-diode (LED)
displays contain a five-bit latch and a decoder/LED driver in a single
16-pin package. These are new and unused, with slight discoloration to
the silver-plated pins. Is there any demand for these obsolete parts?
What are they worth? (or what would be a good starting bid on ebay?)

Is there any demand for these obsolete parts?

Yes, there is, they were semi-commonly used in industrial and
commercial equipment up through the early 80's at least. I think they
made their way into at least one Yaesu ham radio VFO and a couple of
hobbyist microcomputer projects in Pop Elec/Radio Electronics too.
What are they worth?

Last time I saw them listed in the catalogs they were going for like
$20-$25 per digit.

Tim.
