I am looking for a place or places that recycles electronics that pays for these items by weight?

There are no places that will pay you for old electronics by weight. The components inside the electronics are practically worthless. The only part inside of any electronic that is worth anything is on the circuit boards or motherboards, and the only parts that are worth anything on those are the gold plated connectors. There are companies that will take electronics and melt them down and burn away anything that isnt the gold. Mind you that the amount gold in electronics is very very little. You wont get much if anything for the gold inside one electronic device. The companies that do harvest the gold in this manor get the electronics from recycling. Which means they dont really pay people for their old stuff.
