Compasses

I had an idea for a project and ordered about 150 compasses, each came individually wrapped and this is the one and only that actually worked. I tested them all over several days with magnets to see if the needle would move. I tried putting magnets on the nonworking ones to see if they'd been demagnitized. After cracking open a few I discovered they were lacking the teeny piece of iron on the needle. I'm not sure what to do with them now.
