Charity Shop Donation - Suitcases?

We've recently had a clear out of the loft and found 6 old suitcases - I think they must have been breeding up there!
They are all in good condition but some are a bit old fashioned (10-15 years old). Does anyone know if charity shops take this kind of thing?

I've seen suitcases in charity shops so don't see a problem if they are in good condition.Lost my soulmate so life is empty.
I can bear pain myself, he said softly, but I couldna bear yours. That would take more strength than I have -

Put them on eBay - use the magic words 'Retro' or 'Vintage' in the title and some wannabe hipster will easily be parted with their money.0

It's coming back - anybody who wants to be too cool for school now calls themselves a hipster.
Males can be identified by comb over hair, beards, glasses with glass instead of lenses, tattoo sleeves and Doc Martins.
Girls - same as the blokes (some of them even have the beards
)
Like I said - they'll buy any old tat so long as it's described as retro or vintage - shabby chic is a good one to use as well, that gets the gullible tools going also

We use old suitcases for storing winter duvets in summer and vice versa so consider that or similar storage ideas (clothes, blankets, spare pillows, spare linen etc) before selling them or giving them away.We've recently had a clear out of the loft and found 6 old suitcases - I think they must have been breeding up there!

Our local Hospice Furniture shop takes suitcases as well as furniture.
I'm sure there are plenty of charity shops that would welcome them but ask before lugging them along to one.0
