Where can I buy cheap RCA cables?

Post by slowslow325 »

I've had a whole bunch of RCA cables lying around from old VCRs and what not that I am able to use when in need of some. I always had some extra left. I never thought about running out because I figured these things would be dirt cheap and super easy to find.

But now, I'm out and I find that one 3 foot cable can cost around $10!

So my question is, where can I buy the CHEAPEST RCA cables? Yellow White and Red, obviously, but also component (yea, I know they're compatible sometimes, but I like color coding).

Is there a website that sells them from Hong Kong similar to DealExtreme?

I go to computer swap meets for all my cable needs.

Cheap RCA can be bought from Dollar Tree style stores.

Why order something so inexpensive with so many local outlets?
Get out of the house and get some Vitamin D, get cable without the shipping waiting.

Big Lots, Frys, Target, Wallymart, even the local Drug store, Swap Meet or Goodwill.

Boo, stop replying to the bots. :P
