Bulk used Lego sells pretty consistently around $10/lb. Certainly less than retail, but never un-sellable. Of course, selling piece-by-piece on Bricklink will net more, for more work.

Especially when compared to pure "collectibles" that are past their peak, they're much more regular in value and always sell.

You can usually get closer to $5 per pound on eBay if you search carefully. I built an algorithm to do this searching and filtering for me:
