Santa has brought you that great T,but he forgot to bring you HDMI cables. You can run to the store and get ripped off, or, you can order them from us. In keeping with the holiday spirit,the braintrust at ThingFling (no jokes, please) will send you 4 (four) HDMI cables for $20.00 plus S/H. These are 4 (four) new, name brand cables (bulk - NOT PACKAGED). They could be 3 ft.,6 ft,8 ft or 12ft. They may be round or flat.What brands? It may be Philips, RCA, Acoustic Research, Monster, etc. What more do you need to know? Think of it as an HDMI "Almost Mystery Box !"

Are these cables rated for HDMI 1.3a? Are there ferrites on these cables? What guage wire is it? 24AWG? 30? Even without this info, I can say that this is a pretty good deal. If you fling three of these, for a total of 12 cables, the price can't be beat by monoprice.com.

If that is the case, then it is like paying $30 for 4 (or $40) if you have already used Google Checkout. This seems to be a good deal, and I used my MB coupon to get the price down to $16!

another dod site has these right now for $5.99 plus $5.00 shipping .. if you buy multiples the shipping cost is $5 for each piece ... so 4 cables would equate to $43.96 ... TF is a good deal! Flings... Noise Canceling Headphones (use them everyday) .. Philips 6.0DECT Cordless Phone (Excellent phone - even my wife likes it!) .. 2 Phillips Web cams (gave one to my mother-in-law, but it didn't help) .. Valentine Mystery Box 3.77 (loved the fan but my guess was WAY off) .. Mystery Box .. 29.99 Mystery Box .. and finally, the number of times in the last 18 years to get Shagged by someone other than my wife (zero) .... so I'm in for another 3 chances to get shagged with the The Infamous THINGFLING Mystery Box- ! -- okay .. I've done it again and ordered another 3 !! and then I flinged the Power Sentry surge protector .. too good of a deal to pass up! ... and then yes, I'm taking a chance on letting TF redeem themselves so -- I did it again -- Leftover Mystery Box Part III. ... AND YES -- no more mystery boxes for me !!! . .. and apology accepted and thanks for the cards -- but remember that consumer confidence is difficult to restore ! ... Ionic White - Light Activated Tooth Whitening System ... ordered 2x of the teeth whiteners .. and finally took the plunge again with -- The ThingFLing Total Mystery Box (which I didn't have much use for - but others may) -- 2 RadioShack Sensorslab Project Kits - a real steal!

They only verify a returning customer by email address... so just go to gmail and make as many email address as you'd like. I've personally gotten several items for free from buy.com from HDMI cables to tripods.

So since the picture is an RCA cable can I assume this is what I am going to get. We all must know that RCA= really crappy appliances/accessories. But for $5 a cable I guess I'll take a chance. Thanks TF

For a 6ft run brand name and quality of the cable really doesn't mean that much.

For 26 bucks, They had these a while back in a MB and I Got two. They work fine. As for paying $100.00 for a HDMI cable, You are wasting your money. Don't believe the hype. These cables will work fine for most applications. The ones I recieved in My Mb are the same ones and they work great. Although, I think I paid less.
