As costly as titanium is, I find it hard to see one just "throw it away" when the recycle value makes it worthwhile. I checked a local recycler here just for the heck of it, and when it comes to titanium they'll pay from $10 to $30 a pound depending on the purity. I would figure that if you're throwing away roughly 20% of your stock, it would make it worth a trip to the local recycler at least once a quarter.
You may want to check into that as a way to increase revenue. Hey, if it gives you enough for a tank of gas once a quarter, then it's worth it.
