Boxster Secondary Catalytic pipes

Need some advice please - I just took off the secondary cat pipes on my 04 SE. The mileage is 41k. My questions is: are they worth anything, if so how much. Is there any demand for them in our 986 world? Thanks guys.

Cat prices are ridiculous right now, partially driven by a trend of cat theft. There's no harm in posting them for sale, although it's apparently illegal in CA to deal in used emissions equip. I would ask at least $100 or $150 a piece for them considering that new ones are at least triple that.

Secondary converters aren't worth much on the used parts market and I use to scrap most of them. I just got $75 each from the recycler. I use to only get $25. Porsche cats aren't as valuable as other cats. Now the primary cat, those are worth quite a bit on the used market. (if they're good)

Ignore what I said and listen to this guy, he does this for a living
