recycling

Is it common practice to not pay for recycling electronics? I find it kind of funny that scrap metal demands such a premium but electronics recycling gets nothing. My dad owns a stereostore and throws away hundreds of radio head-units a month is there anything useful or profitable that can be done with electronics on such a mass scale?

None of them seem to pay anything for the scrap.
