I hate cord cutters :/

Is it possible that the owner saved the cord when he tossed out the machine? If I throw something out that has a cord, wich is pretty rare, unless its made of plastic, I cut the cord and save it in case I come across something that needs one. I dont want to pay four or five bucks for a new cord to put on an old drill or tv I only paid a few bucks for to re-sale at the fea market. And I quit buying cords from the homeless guys under the bridge a long time ago, it just encourages them.

Well, I don't think they would have thought to save the cord. My neighbor threw it out cause it stopped drying well (simply a clogged lint trap). My question is, why would you cut the cord if if you want to save it? Shouldnt you detach it from the connections? Is it really safe to just splice a different cord on it?
