I'm not sure if you guys have used or heard of them before - but check them out. You may save yourself a lot of $$$ in PC parts and home theater accessories/parts. HUGE inventory.

Anyway, last week I ordered a 6ft HDMI cable along with an optical switch and 3 optical cables for my new setup. This all came to a total of $32!! They shipped via USPS and I hoped for the best. I didn't really keep up with the tracking of my package until last Saturday when I check online and the status says it had been delivered on Friday at 3:22PM.

I waited until Monday and nothing came, I spoke to the carrier and he said he never delivered a package to or near my house. That's right, USPS had LOST my order. good thing it was only a $37 order with shipping, but come on.. this shows how unreliable USPS can be.

So to get to the point, I emailed Monoprice, they sent me a link to email USPS, I forwarded USPS's reply (which asked me for even more detailed BS questions) and today they sent me a replacement via UPS 2nd Day Air!!

I was originally going to buy my cables from Best Buy. Their HDMI cable alone is ~$70. What a ripoff.. and I'm a BB fanboy.

Check em out!!

I agree with you totally! Just got two different RCA to 3.5mm lines from Monoprice a few weeks ago, they were so cheap I just bought two of them to see which one I liked better!

I was just singing their praises to Willie Gee a week or two ago. I bought some HDMI cables, speaker wire and other accessories. Everything was real great at AMAZING prices!

I found the EXACT SAME speaker brackets that I bought for $4 a pair from monoprice at Home Depot. Their price... $18 a pair.

Thanks for the tip. I'll check them out.
I always laugh when the sale people try to sell me a $60 hdmi cable. Crazy..
I've been getting them for $6-8 online for years.
