When I bought my SONY home theater ($500 everywhere; my friends paid that much; Amazon was selling it for $250 but one had to wait....2 weeks. I thought two weeks were worth $250) it came without HDMI cable. I went to BB and found that the cheapest HDMI that was selling there was some Monster variety at $35 or so.
So I went on eBay, and for $6 (I decided not to buy $1.50 ones, though I have no proof they were not bottled from the same barrel) bought me a cable which is working fine (it's been about......8 or 9 years or so).

I am sure the true connoisseurs could discern them; I can't.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
