quantity != quality

He said low quantity. He was kidding or has his foot in his mouth now. Doesn't really matter which.
Consensus is that you don't need to care at all with 6' cables.
EDIT: Wow, I think we might have over-responded to that one.

Also, AR website claims 720p, 60Hz. That means it's tested for that, but tells nothing about its max capabilities.
It was hiding in "Previous models" from the page with cables.

Quantity

What? We're all human here right?

You probably think farts aren't funny either.

Dang it. I need a 12 foot cable.

OK, I've got the noose tied, what in my office is high enough and sturdy enough to tie the other end to?

Great price, everyone buy three.

In the meantime... has anyone got a spotify invite? If so, is it worth the hype?

The dead clown hung himself with one of these things.

Can you get more than one for the $5 shipping or do you have to pay that high shipping for each cable?
If the latter I'll stick to Monoprice which might be a tad more expensive but shipping would be much less for multiple cables. If I can get 1/2 dozen or more I'll order some from woot. I like that these cables lack the big fat choke that are on all MP HDMI cables, MP cables are also on the stiff side.

Yawnnnnn

I got a box full from China for $2 each. Sold them at a flea market for $10. Sweet.

At gold at $1500+ per oz, that gold plating alone is worth the shipping! 3, please! And 300 more on my other 100 accounts!

I think you mean 155" TV. Oh wait, even that doesn't make a difference.

You can get up to 3 for one $5 shipping.

Wait ...what?

The dead clown hung himself? or he hung himself and then died?

I'm getting a "chicken or the egg" headache over here.

Shipping is flat-fee.. $5 regardless of quantity. I do have to mention that I paid $4 total for TWO 6ft HDMI cables on amazon just yesterday .. but this is still a good deal.

the line is moving!

Boo-yah! I got an HDTV last year and then a blu-ray player for x-mas. I've been too cheap to buy HDMI cables so this is perfect.

In for two.

The $5 shipping is per order, regardless of quantity (meaning if you buy 3, it's one order, therefore only $5 shipping).

Almost certainly won't do ethernet over HDMI as that utilizes extra pins. If the cable doesn't advertise it, it probably won't do it.

In for two. I'm going to need one for the Apple TV I want to buy.

in for 3, just like the earbuds they had the other day; maybe they're good quality, maybe they're not, at this price i can litter the house with them and always have one handy. and maybe they are Even Cheaper elsewhere but for cryin out loud, this isn't exactly price gouging.

i've never even come close to a Bleat of Cuckolds before, but i'm staying tuned this afternoon just to see what it looks like (with luck of course)

They're not necessary even then, believe me.

Now for the TV to go with it...

Not that I'm not amused or anything, because I totally am and it saves me having to look up the episode, but can we try to relate it here back to the cables.

Circle back around to the topic, if we can.
