I have nine of the bastards. I can't craft them, I won't key them, and they appear to be completely untradeable. They're just sitting in my inventory pointedly not being something useful.

I'll give you a scrap metal for them, if you're trying to get rid of them.
I would like this offer!
To be clear, this is a scrap metal for 8 crates, and not a scrap per crate.
what would you give me for 6?
They are not untradeable. However, you probably won't get much for them so you might as well delete them.
There are lot of people willing to take crates, I am not one of them.
Seriously though, just go to the SPUF and asking for a PM
On a server there were three guys who had about 20 crates in total, so they held a competition of most airblast cliff kills, winner takes all the crates. It was a fun little competition.

Find a trade server and let people know your trading them.
There is a crate sticky on the Steam TF2 forums, list them there. I did that a couple of weeks ago and got rid of about 30 of them in a little less than an hour. List them while you're playing or something.
I was on a server the other day where a few guys were apparently playing a game of poker with crates because they had so many.
I just held on to mine.
Just traded all 8 of them for a backscratcher.
Take whatever you are offered.

Played with a crate-hoarding dude last night. He gave me the medic crossbow for nine of them, I was pleased.
This. Advertise you have crates, and eventually someone will want to trade you for them. You probably want to take whatever you can get.
That's a pretty bad trade, you can usually get at least a scrap metal per crate. Or 2 weapons per crate, if not more
Not anymore. Crateflation!
