You fucking rock!!!!


I was looking for a 4 pin to 4 pin 1394 firewire cable so I walked in the Best Buy and found a 6ft cable for $34.99. It hit me then that I remembered a few guys talking about the Monoprice place, so I said fuck it. I put the cable back on the shelf and went home. I looked up the cable on Monoprice and the cable was get this........$1.73. I ordered one and with 3-4 day ground shipping the total was $3.46.. for the same god damn cable. Fuck you Best Buy, I'm buying ALL of my wires at Monoprice from now on.

They have like everything. Love it.

My husband has bought ALL of his accessories for his iPhone from them. All of it is super cheap quality, but if you are paying $2 for a case you can afford to break it and buy a new one in 6 months.

Recently picked up an HDMI cable from them. Excellent quality and couldnt beat the price.

I've bought quite a few cables from them no problems...I'd watch out for their tv mounts though. A little too cheap for a $2,000 TV imho. I used one on my 32 Computer monitor though. I think it was like $20 or something...

I've been fucking Best Buy for years. If people didnt WANT things now, they could get great deals online and it'll probably make retailers drop their prices.
