What have you found that you can buy MUCH MUCH cheaper....HDMI cable got 10 ft off ebay for $5 that would be 40 or 50 at the store cell phone accessories are much cheaper, and bed sheets 1200 TC for $44.

You can get $5 HDMI and less then $5 phone accessories on Amazon too. I got a computer hookup and phone charger for my phone for $5 total.

They cost just as much to make as other cables.

Companies like Best Buy know they can get morons to pay $100 for Monster cables.

I think it was BB, they were caught hooking on TV up with a normal cable wire, then another with a monster HDMI and had a big sign that said "See the monster difference".

There is no difference even on a top of the line display. A digital signal is a digital signal.

IDK bout EBAY but Amazon has external harddrives for about 40% of retail value if you were to go to a store.


Of course it depends on which one you get, but they've got some good deals.
