Selling an old IBM AS400/9404

I've got some info to add to this discussion plus a
question about this hardware from the more AS/400
savvy folks out there.

I've got a license tape from a 9406-D60 As/400. I've
got two backplanes, each in separate cabinets:

9406-5010/5030 I/O Card Unit Feature
5042 Expansion chassis

The tape in question was stuck in the 5042 cabinet.

Question: Are these two backplanes designed to work
together? Or are they two separate systems?

The tape has this particular notice on the label:
9406-D60 MODEL UNIQUE LIC - PROPERTY OF IBM
LICENSED FOR USE ON INDICATED SPECIFIC SERIAL NUMBERED
SYSTEM, NOT LICENSED FOR ANY OTHER USE, REPRODUCTION,
ADAPTATION OR DISTRIBUTION.

Then there's a small sticker with a 9406 serial number
on it.

So to keep this kosher, would I have to sell the 5042
with the tape?

Also - is there anyone on the list that would be
willing to pay for either of these things? Or is my
only recourse used AS/400 dealers? If I can find
someone near Roanoke VA USA that would like to buy
them I'd probably part with them for cheap... save me
the hassle of packing them up on pallets.
