My friend has a bunch of these cables and I don't really know what they are. Let's run down the list.
They come in a package like this: Package
I take it this is just a parallel and serial port that you can connect to certain motherboards? Parallel and Serial
This is one that I don't know is. It looks like one of those is a floppy connector? What is the other one? Connectors Entire Cable
Now this one looks like an ATA33 cable but the connector isn't missing the one slot. IDE?
Lastly is a package like this worth anything? We have a bunch.
 
what you have there justin is a pack of cables that were probably meant to be packaged with a Later pentium class mobo, the cables are still useful for thier original purposes (well maybe except the serial and paralell headers). but as overall value, not much.

- Used on AT motherboards

This is one that I don't know is. It looks like one of those is a floppy connector? What is the other one? Connectors Entire Cable
- Like Budman said, connector for 5 1/4 floppy and a "normal" floppy

Now this one looks like an ATA33 cable but the connector isn't missing the one slot. IDE?
Normal IDE cable, some of the old cables didnt have the knob thing, the red wire was used to identify which way the cable should be.
