    My yard has 3 grades, 80% copper bearing, 55% and 30%. 55% pays out about $1/lb, the 33% about $.50/lb.

    My ribbon wire goes in the $.50/lb pile, all other computer wires and cords go into the $1/lb pile. Just took in over 250 lbs of mixed computer wires much of which was monitor cable wire, etc with no issues for $1.08/lb.

    As was said though every yard is different. The first yard I went to gave me $.38/lb for all the wire so I don't go back there.
