I mean cables are indeed very valuable in just scrap.

My dad worked in IT and we had a 50 gallon drum full of all kinds of cables. Not only did we always have the type of cable we needed but if I ever needed $100 in an emergency I'd just fill a box and head to the local scrapyard.

You'll get even more money if you remove the insulation first.

How big was this box you were filling?
