The mercury weight is from the Ison Distribution website. http://www.ison-distribution.com/ison/english/product.php?part=RMHAM716 Wheelroom says the are 475g, so 5g heavier than the IRDs, I think. However they're about £15 cheaper.

Sounds fair.
40g for rim tapes 20g for alloy nipples 50g for front QR 50g more for spokes if you want to keep the cost low
and I'd be inclined to go with wheelsmith weight over distributor. so 20g more for rims
But that's still only 1634g which is very good for a cheap lightweight wheel set.
