Canadian Site for Cables?

[AlexanderCS]

Hi folks,

I'm just wondering if anyone has a good site for Canadians to get inexpensive cabling?

I'm currently using dx.com--to give you an idea, I'm getting a SATA 3.0 cable for about $1.88, HDMI (5 ft) for $2.77, and 100ft of Cat6 for about $20. These prices are US, shipping is also free.

Am I getting the best deal here, or is there another site more local that has similar pricing?

You must be really cheap if you are looking for a cheaper price than $1.88 and $2.77 for cables. You must be re-selling thousands of these cables to be concerned about a possible savings of a few cents.

For networking always buy 1000' rolls if you are doing cabling. But if you are making your own patch cables you are wasting your time and money.

Is there something wrong with wanting similar pricing from a local provider?

Not making my own, no. It doesn't come up often enough--I'm just looking for a local (as local as possible, anyway) place with good pricing that I can restock when I run low on sata, networking, video, etc.

Montreal is close and I see they offer same-day. Thanks! +Rep

Thanks for sharing, haven't seen them before.

I also occasionally order from dx.com. I use newegg and amazon for cables too.

Nope...just thought you were just trying to get a lower price. But, now that I re-read the post, it does make more sense now.
