A sheckle for that USB cable you must be mad

2006-07-24 by Andrew

I realy doubt that big places like wally world
and home office dungeon realy pay 3 $ for a USB
cable.

That is just proposterous.

3 $ is way too much.

I pay $16.50 (Australian = $13 USD) for 10 of
1.5 meter USB A-B cables.

Thats 1.65 $ ($1.30 USD) each and I am only
buying 10 at a time.  I would imagine that the
big guys would pay sub $1 :D

It amazing they can survive on only 97% GP
markups isn't it :S
