    LOL, that's for sure!
    While digging through some old audio stuff I found some speaker wire I had from WAY back, maybe 16 ga. The trash truck was running that day, so I laid it on top of the trash bags in the container. I saw the truck pull up and the worker opened up the lid, paused for just one second, then grabbed the wire and stuck it in his favorite hiding place on the truck. Of course the wire I placed there was coiled up fairly neatly. That rats nest the seller has pictured needs to get the same treatment! Even with copper going for about $3.46 a pound right now, what's pictured ain't worth it!

    Looks like they might be a lot of the old double coax in there. I use to love those cables for testing purpose in my shop (however, the batch I had was in top shape). Surprisung what people take the time to put on sale on a site.

    Why would you waiste time and money on such? Do you think you'd have any luck Karma a bundle of stripped cables from a commercial install (my guess anyway). If you are a non smoker, you might find discusting digging the scrapped cables of his deck :rolleyes:

    That is so true however, the provided picture was a warning to stay away anyway ;)

    When you think about it, there will more likely be a fish to bite on this so called offer one way or another :)
