Cut power cords are usually taken by scrappers. When scrap prices are high enough they'll often break sets open to get the yokes, transformers and even internal wiring.[/QUOTE]
I was at a metals recycler and there was a 55 gallon drum, filled to the top with cut-off power cords. Wire with insulation on it isn't worth the real market value of scrap copper.
What is the scrap value of a power cord? Like $0.02.
