Not a chance. The metal backed ones are $8 to $9 a pound and there is not more than 5 pounds there at most.
The factory weight of a pentium 4 processor is 21.5 Grams

Those look to be all pentium 4's The green fiber board will be lighter.
81 * 21.5 grams = 1.7415 kilograms
1.7415 kilograms = 3.8393503 pounds
On the low end
3.8393503 Pounds * $8 = $30.71
It's a huge ripoff.
The only chance for profit is if they still have use and resale value as processors. Some P4s still do, though most do not.
