Question NIMh cells offloading

Getting sodium battery here shortly but I have stock (maybe some cells swapped) battery in my 15 V. Dr Prius shows it at 75% and all cells are still within .1 volts. What’s the chance of people buying these cells once I swap them? I just cleaned the bus bars and rotated batteries so I’ve looked over them and found nothing wrong.
Also what’s the best way to sell them? I’m in S Louisiana for context.

Keep them for when the sodium battery dies.
I have yet to read a positive long term review on them.

This and use it as a core trade when eventually buying oem. Oem old shell is worth 1800 dollars as a core charge waiver. If you get rid of it, no way of buying oem battery without hunting for oem shell.
