Brilliant idea. Calculate how many pieces are in a pound, and then go from
there. But still charge per pound, cents per piece doesn't sound to
impressive. You'll probably get a bunch of classic space guys, trans-yellow
cockpits, maiden hats, old armour, Classic Space printed pieces, crater
baseplates -- buying old LEGO from non-LEGO people is always a good way to get
rare parts.
