I know, I know monoprice and other online retailers have em for like $3 but I need one asap so is there any big retailer that actually sells them for a fair price and not $40 for a fucking 6' cable?

    Saw a decent deal at Wal-Mart the other day. You could check out Fry's if there's one nearby, they're not *too* bad.

    Looks like Fry's has one for 5 bucks, perfect, thanks!

    Target has some generic ones usually. Radio Shack maybe. Pretty much every brick & mortar is going to overcharge you, even for the non-Monster cables--it's how they make up for the discount on big electronics items.

    Well, I am suitably appalled at myself. Thanks for the chastisement.

    yeah I was in there the other day by chance and was really depressed they're basically changing their schtick from a dorky place to get equipment that does a job for a certain part of the retail market...to a wannabe best buy with a bunch of stupid overpriced shit

    Oh god don't get me started on Radio Shack. The name itself is deceptive, as you think it would be some sort of bargain-bin wholesale store, but good god they are worse than Best Buy sometimes.

    I really wish there was a Fry's around here.
