We only install new calipers here so all the old ones go in the scrap bin. We do not replace that many though.

Take 'em in to be recycled if you can... pretty much solid aluminum.
BTW, for the next time, Brian at Roseland Technical Services in New Brunswick has excellent pricing on OEM brake components including TRW calipers.

There are places online that buy cores, but you usually need significant volume. You could try eBay.
I have a local shop I deal with and whenever I'm in your position I just give him the parts. He'll get to use them if another customer doesn't return their core and I find it also comes around if I get stuck without a core.
