    Amazon is cheaper than monprice. Like usually 1/2-1/3 the price for a single cable, and still much cheaper even if you're buying a lot of them. With shipping a single hdmi cable would cost me $4.92 from monoprice. I've never paid more than $1.7 with shipping from amazon. Monoprice is $1.98 each if you want 100 cables; STILL more than amazon.

    Monoprice is crazy expensive, and i will never understand why people recommend them so often.

    yup probably after monoprice dominated the low price cable market it opened up others to join in. maybe it's not as price effective if you don't live in cali but here in cali the shipping is cheap and fast (overnight)

    Yeah they have, they can just be hard to find, since sorting by price doesn't work at all at that price (since it doesn't account for shipping).

    I spend 5$ on cables eligible for prime for the free 2day. Costs me a dollar or two extra but I just got a new tv, new sound system, and also needed a long ass one. Want ASAP. UPS is basically sending a truck out for my house alone tomorrow cause I'm expecting like 15 packages to arrive of all different sizes lol. Tactical christmas and all, gotta get those Tomahawks.
