What happened to Monoprice?!

[photon]

Haha! NCIX has them for almost as cheap as Monoprice, and I can pricematch with Memory Express. Yay.

That sucks about monoprice. I remember they went down ago because of some credit card thing. They came back worse.

hmmm... I just ordered 4 10ft hdmi cable from them and it was $18 shipping. The total came out to $66 - ummm.... still can't beat that.

are you clicking the wrong shipping? You should be using USPS for Canada. - not International.

If you need RCA cables just go to the dollar store.

For HDMI cables Bewawa has a pretty good deal on different length cables and only $5 shipping.

Nope, got the right shipping..

I think I figured out what it is.. if I do something lower than 5lbs total, USPS Air Parcel is available. For example, shipping for an HDMI cable:

1 - $4.14
2 - $6.20
4 - $9.34
6 - $13.47
8 - $16.62

But if I go to 9, the whole order weight goes to 5 lbs and the USPS Air Parcel disappears, and then I either have to use UPS (hello brokerage fees) or USPS Priority International:

9 - $27.93

So I could split my order up to keep it under that 5lbs.

Yeah the RCA cables are incidental, it's the 10 and 15 foot DVI cables that I really need, my new case is very awesome, but it makes it so I need longer DVI cables.

USPS air parcel becomes available after a certain physical dimension is reached for the box, it has nothing to do with weight. Goto www.usps.com and try out their shipping calculator. I remember once a box became too long, you couldn't do air parcel anymore.

I ordered and received 2 6ft hdmi cables, 1 10ft hdmi cable, and an hdmi to mini displayport of 24+9 shipping to edmonton. Very reasonable!

After the CC mess, I ordered two 10' and one 12' HDMI cables, and a 12' toslink for $19.06. They charged me $13.42 S&H for a total of $32.48, which I thought was a little high.

Their S&H charges seem to be all over the mat and the delivery took over two weeks. I'm going to watch the delivery charges closer next time, still it's cheaper than any store.

what i laugh at is that overall $33 for 3 10ft+ hdmi cables is a frikkin steal. Try buying anything like that retail. betcha pay over $100 easy.
