Slightly OT: Ethics

So about 2.5 years ago, I bought an SGI machine off ebay and the guy let me
borrow the IRIX 6.5 media. I never sent them back and contacted him like 4
months later and said "Whoa I forgot to send them back, can I have your
address?" I meant to send them, but forgot *again*. I have tried to email
him every 5-6 months for the past two years, but his e-mail is dead (domain
name is gone) and his ebay account hasn't been used since 2002. What do I
do?

I am thinking it'd be okay to sell the CDs and if I ever do by some chance
find him again, then I can give him the money.

I feel really bad about this.

Any advice?
