Yep...that's when you introduce them to Monoprice (aka, shipping costs more than the cord ) and blow their minds

Monoprice so wrong with that shipping shyt but you just gotta make sure you buy all the shyt you need at once. Long ass HDMI cables, long ass Ethernet cables, long ass optical cables, everything.

Yea, markup on cords/cables/accessories is wild. I used to work for Sears corporate in electronics and would visit the stores, attachment rates was the main metric by which the associates were measured

I wish I would pay more than $10-20 for a hdmi cord

They don't make commission at least not in recent years.

But if you ever worked in audio and video sales, those accessories always paid out good, especially the monster cable. I would make mad loot on hustling the monster cable and surge protectors.

no commission at BB. which is why when i worked there i never went hard at people about anything.

brehs used to make bank by buying the hdmi cables with our discount, then selling them outside of the job.
