Cool Today's RETAIL HDMI cable finds...

For those of you that don't know Maxi pretty much = RCSS. Seems they're the same company or owned by the same company.

So I was in Maxi today looking for HDMI to DVI cables (yeah I know don't hold my breath). At first I saw typical HDMI cable prices from $20 and up to $40 or $50. Walked a little more over in the aisle and I found more HDMI cables but with the following much better prices (all gold plated cables):

C2 Tech brand HDMI v1.3 for PS3 6ft $10
Audiovox brand 6ft $10
Century Concept Digital 10ft with both tags of $15 and $20 (try take advantage of the barcode scanning policy )
RCA 6ft I think was $18

The 2 best looking cables are the C2 Tech and the Century Concept Digital. They both have really sleek looking, solid construction. Very smooth stylish finish on the ends.

Jan 8th:
Zellers in Atwater/Plaza Alexis-Nihon in Mtl, QC has the following HDMI cables.
Chateau brand 3ft HDMI $7
Chateau brand 12ft HDMI $13 <<= I think that's a hot price
Philips 12ft HDMI v1.3a $45

Some decent finds for retail, but I highly recommend monoprice.com - I bought a DVI->HDMI cable there recently and I'm very happy with it.

Nobody beats monoprice for cables.

28AWG gold plated 6ft 1.3a Cat2 with ferrite cores. $4.74
http://www.monoprice.com/products/pr...seq=1&format=2

28AWG gold plated 6ft Cat2. $4.03
http://www.monoprice.com/products/pr...seq=1&format=2

I've never had a problem ordering from monoprice. Shipping is affordable too.

Lots of choices for cables, those two are just the most popular hot deals. You can get any type of HDMI cable you could ever want from these guys.

That said, if you need a cable immediately, the OP deals are pretty good for retail 6ft cables @ $10. That's a really good price in a store.

to both of you we all know monoprice and online shops are cheaper. This posting is to help those that need cables immediately and can't wait for shipping or don't want to wait for shipping.

It might look cheaper, but 4.74 + 3.95(shipping) = $8.68 USD x exchange rate is well over 10 bux.

I'd say its a pretty good deal for retail, especially for the convenience.

Default For those who HAVE to have Monster Cable

Yep, I know, it's Monster, yep I know about Monoprice. Say what you will, but VIsions has the Monster HDMI800 Cable going for 28 Dollars.

LOL, Yeah, love the "MSRP" price. Either way though, some people would prefer Monster cable.

My $3 Monoprice cables are badass, but you can;t change people's preferences.

Monster cables hooked up to a Bose sound system will ensure you're getting the best bang for your buck...
