    At a 50/50 weight mix, it would only be worth $6.50 ($5 for connectors, $1.50 for wire).



    If my calculations are right, and IDE end is only worth around 1 to 1.5 cents a piece at the $1/Lbs. mark.

    It will be interesting to see what you find out.

    I found out i lost money o well i wanted something to do and cheaper then drinking.

    6 pounds ins 3
    4 pounds gold connectors

    Made back 5.80$

    So ribbon cable I judge isnt worth buying what so ever.

    I wish I saw this before you did it. I could have saved you the cash. :-)
