They would be offered at a lower price. Most sales were auctions, so the starting bid would be dropped until someone made a bid.
Slaves that could not be sold were often killed, as it cost money to feed them.
Slaves who were unsaleable were almost never 'killed'. This is a total fabrication. Certainly some slaves were killed for all sorts of reasons, and in most places punishments for these murders were lenient, but killing slaves was almost everywhere illegal. In Africa killing slaves was acceptable in most kingdoms and tribal societies. This was not unique to Africa. In feudal Japan, for example, it was perfectly legal for nobles and members of the Samurai class to kill peasants. Restrictions were imposed under the Tokugawa shogunate, but in general a Samurai could kill an peasant who had committed a minor offence with impunity. This state of affairs persisted in Japan (and elsewhere) well into the 19th century. Prior to European colonization, Aztec and Inca nobles could kill any commoner for any reason.

What happened to slaves?
If you mean, What happened to slaves once they reached the Americas, a lot of things happened. First they were sent to the auction house, where they were sold to many white folks, known as "masters". If they were not sold, they would be left out on the streets to die of hunger, or in their own filth. the main people who suffered this brutal treatment were the women who had infants to look after. In those days, women were considered to be weak, and with an infant, the master's food bill would rise and so he would not be able to afford to keep "his" slave. If you mean, What happened to the slaves after the American Civil War, well, most were released, but lived as minors to the white people and were discriminated against severely, for the rest of their lives.
