I need another perspective

I am just in a bit of a tizzy. Last year I was given the opportunity to make some money, if I put in a lot of physical pain errr Labor
I came across this 80 something year old guy who owned a warehouse. The warehouse used to be a cabinet manufacturer who went bankrupt, it was full of white (like you see in lowes )and some solid wood cabinets. BUT the majority of it was cabinet doors. I had to stack the pallets and shrink wrap all of it, then had to transport the pallets to a Quonset hut steel bldg I erected in my back yard. The wife was not happy with that or any other part of this.
I had about 70 pallets all together, some damaged mdse and some not. I have only been able to get about half of the pallets because I have run out of room. As far as I know the other pallets are still in the warehouse, but may be thrown out by now because I have not been out there since I broke my ankle in January.
Now the real point. I have had these things for a very long time and have not been able to sell any of them. I paid nothing for this inventory except paying help and renting the truck to move this still about $1000.00. I have tried craigslist, ebay and the local paper, nothing. I just knew I would have people lining up at my door for these cabinet doors. Nothing. So I am posting this to see if 1) anyone knows anyone who would be interested in buying these 2) How can i market these 3) Should I just say the hell with it and dump em? (as my wife wishes I would do)
