Nikonos-V ... worth bothering?

I have two lovely NikVs doing nothing for me but taking up space. Is there any market for these at all or are they destined for the bin? I'm in Australia, but I'll be in the USA in a few weeks and would drag them along if there might be more potential to get them to a new home from there. What do you all think?

    Film seems popular right now, and there are some stalwarts still making nice pictures with these. I’d rather adapt the lenses to digital rather than muck around with film. They are/were lovely cameras.

    There a guy named Elie aka Narcosis101 on Instagram that buys, sells and fixes all things Nikonos. Maybe try reaching out to him. He’s overhauled a couple of Nikonos bodies, pressure tested them and some lenses. Also has an eBay store. He’s in California.

    There is a market for retro gear. I’d try advertising them on the Classifieds……

    You mean here? If anyone wants them, please do reach out :)
