I took up 401 pounds of processed parts and received 300.00. most of the weight was the power supplies.....what I will do is weigh the next load I have as whole towers and then break them down and which price is better. I am saving all my chips however until I can sort them.
The part I think your missing is more than scrap value (ie. Resale). A single i7 cpu could be worth $70 or more. 1gb and higher memory can be resold. Check the buyers section. You could be throwing hundreds of dollars away.
