Expired seats at garage sale

Okay, was wondering what everyone would do in this situation...

Stopped at a garage sale this morning with 3 expired seats (DOM 1997,2000,2002) They had $20 on 2 of them and $10 on the other. I made sure to tell the lady that carseats are good for 6 years and all of these were expired and should be disposed of. She said a friend brought them over and her son is about 10. If they would've been her seats I would've offered a few dollars for them and disposed of them properly, but since they were a friend's I didn't think she'd go for that.
What else could I have done? Is there anything else?

I usually have information about expirations in my car and whip out that handly paper. Usually they'll end up giving them to me for free or very minimal charges on account of I'm willing to properly dispose of them for the person.

Is there a good place to go and print something like that? I'd love to be able to do that. I've seen a lot of expired seats at garage sales here. :(

On the bright side, with prices liek that, chances are likely people aren't likely to buy them.

That was my thought. I'd really like to even have a card to give them, in case they want to give it to their 'friend'. I'm not certified yet though, so I don't think it would mean much right now.
