How to figure out which are the rarer pieces of a set?

I've just bought a used Tower Bridge 10214. The set was kind of a mess when it arrived (partially dismantled, not organised at all) but I knew the risks! It also stank of smoke so I decided to completely dismantle, sort and wash the pieces to make it my own. I'd really like to check the pieces are all there but I'm about to move overseas and don't have enough time to build it. There are about a million teeny bits (rounding up for emphasis!) and the idea of counting them makes my head hurt. I might weigh it all and compare to a complete set's weight but I also wondered if there was a way I could just check it for rarer pieces being present - just to make sure I won't have to spend a lot of money to make it a complete set in the future if there are a few missing. I've not used brick link much - is there a way I can use it to figure out the most pricey parts to replace on this set? I played with it for a few mins and it's not obvious to me if this is possible... Appreciate any advice you clever people have...
