Because they think people keep stealing their charge cables because they need one; and not that they want to want to turn that sweet copper into cash.

a charge cable is like 500 bucks. it's definitely worth more whole.

For the most part, the people who strip copper wiring for a quick buck would not know or care that selling it intact would make a lot more. They want cash now, not next week.

For whatever reason this reminded me of folks that steal mufflers thinking they're catalytic converters.
