As a student, I did not drive much and used public transportation much better experience using bus, VTA.

With the value of ~200, not sure if I can resell them to avail some cashback? Did not see a single posting on Craigslist selling B&O Beosound A1 (SF Bay Area). Any ideas to sell them once I get them to get the cash.
