Audio/Video Cable
 

Figured I'd show off my new cable I just bought. I bought about 20 cables from these guys, and you'd never guess how much I paid!

Here is a 12' 5-cable component / audio cable from the box I just got. Probably worth $100+ or more in any store:

Here is that cable:

The prices will blow you away, and trust me when I tell you it is as good as any monster cable or whatever you are used to paying a premium for.

You may be happy but frankly subman this thread looks like Spam.

Further proof you don't see straight.

You people are never happy, you all used to get upset over his political threads. I think those are really pretty cables Subman! :D

Friggen awesome for that amount of money. I was in Radio Shack and they wanted 3 conductor component cable - 3' for $40! They are nuts!

I paid less than $100 for all my cable to redo my entire stereo! Including shipping.

I still can't believe Radio Shack is still in business, how the hell do they do it?

They sell cables for 1000% markup. It's all profit!

Ah more libel from Subman.

Do you Troll in every forum you visit?

I agree with your about radioshack. They do overprice their components. I think they gear themselves to the hard core fan groups that don't like to change. I use to build my own speakers system and bought many components from them. Now I'm too lazy to do it. :smug:

Worse then that, last time I was shopping there I noticed that the VGA cable I was looking for was about $40 more than it should have been (apparantly because it had gold tips which help prevent corrosion, as if my computer is on a submarine). I asked the associate for the cheaper version, and he said that he could order it for me but that they didn't carry it in store.

I assume the strategy here is to get people like me to just buy the damned expensive cable because I want it now. Instead, I went to OfficeMax and found it for $40 less. :rock:

I won't be sad to see them go out of business.

That is a nice cable set. Looks quite sturdy too.

What's the deal with HDMI cables. I bought two that were bad right out of the box...:nope:

Yeah the cable prizes you get in stores are insane... 1 meter HDMI cable I think 89€ last time I've looked at them in a shop... we needed something to connect a sat-reciever to a beamer mounted to the ceiling. I think we got the 15 or 20 meter cable we needed for that for 100€ over the net.

50' (somewhere between 15 and 20 meters) would from you 20 lbs here.
