If you can get more than $800, sell them. And get some softies..
Nobody in their right mind is gonna pay that for 30+ year old parachutes. There may be riggers out there willing to bet their license on certifying a parachute over thirty years old but many will not. Manufacturers can and do establish life limits on their gear and when they do, a rigger must abide by them just like some aircraft manufacturer's put life limits on some aircraft components like wing spars or assemblies. In many ways parachutes are similar to airplanes concerning inspections and complying with ICAs and ADs.
