Bestbuy or Futreshop (same company, slightly different products) are notorious for completely over pricing Monster products. Albeit that isn't a bad price for an all-in-one htib cable upgrade from a retail store. But just for reference, do yourself a favor and buy practically nothing in terms of Monster Cable products from either of those big box stores.

A&B Sound in Victoria has all Monster cables 50% off...
Though they're still over-priced... but considering retailers rarely put AV cables on sale at all, it's okay.

People who don’t know better should be taken advantage of by retail stores right?
one, two even three thousand percent markup is cool?

Good price, but xscargo had these for $29 a while back. It does include an svideo and a subwoofer cable too.

maybe BB or FS should close some stores to save expenses and lower their prices or concentrate more on online shopping instead of opening new stores.
Why would you need both BB and FS in one Lansdowne mall in Richmond??? I really don't get it??!!! They are maybe half a block from each other. I am sure most people know that BB and FS are basically the same... Worse is both of them aren't busy at all. What a waste of money.
Same goes to Winners and Home Sense... 2 almost identical stores in one Lansdowne mall, but then they're different cos they sell liquidate stuffs.

xscargo's monster cables are just inventory bought from radio shack when they switched to the source - thus the "cheap" price. Monster cable, in general, is WAY over-priced everywhere. :)

Capital is money, capital is commodities. By virtue of it being value, it has acquired the occult ability to add value to itself. It brings forth living offspring, or, at the least, lays golden eggs.

Haha I don't get this either, but it's always fun to look inside both stores when I do get out there! I thought they were owned by the same parent company??
