...need a reminder that Best Buy is awful??

 

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/AudioQuest+-+Coffee+26.3'+HDMI+Cable+-+White/1267512.p?skuId=1267512&productCategoryId=abcat0107020&id=1218245467893#tabbed-customerreviews

 

Very very glad none of those reviews sound even at all serious. My personal favorite:

 

Once I connected my TiVo and television with the cable I sat in front of it and turned on the power. For 30 seconds I saw colors that I never knew existed, never had existed before this AV combo of the Gods was brought to this earth. Then, I went completely blind. The awesomeness that shot out of the television was too great for mortal eyes. In panic I called to my girlfriend. She ran into the room, only to scream and attempt to flee. Apparently the refraction from this new technological prism created an inter-dimensional rift. Flying armored goats flew past me, grabbed my girlfriend, and retreated into the portal.

This cable blows every other HDMI cable away! Best Buy allowed me to finance this for 24 months interest free and it only costs me $68.79 a month for 2 years! How could I say no to that!??!

 

Lol

Let me get this straight. 1600 bucks for an HDMI cable? I got 2 for 20 bucks and theyre both good quality and work on a lot of stuff lol. That's ridiculous unless I'm completely missing something about this HDMI cable of the Gods.

I'm pretty sure they put the decimal place in the wrong spot and the internet is just having some fun with their stupidity.

Also that's not a decimal point error its been listed for over a month now. They actually expect you to pay that much.

If that is the real price. The only dummy's who will buy that are filthy rich people.

Thats like selling a bullet for 1800. If it really cost that much it better get out of the package and plug its own self in and be able to hack the DoD mainframe using satellite signals.

Monoprice FTW. I like Best Buy if only for their extended warranties. Last time I was in there, though, the salesman was trying hard to sell me one of those damn $400 HDMI cables. I got into an extended discussion with him on how he was ripping people off and that all HDMI cables were the same (they have to preform to a certain standard to even be called HDMI cables), but this guy wasn't having it. I don't know if he thought he was going to change my mind or if he was a true believer in what crap they shoveled to him in the sales meetings.

+1

 

Personal rule of thumb: If cables are the problem, monoprice is the answer ;)
