A/B cable, look at the pix in the auction  looks like i need to crack open the piggie bank a lil more

For what it's worth, I got a quote on monoprice.com for both cables @ $5.70 shipped.

Standard power cable.  I would be hard pressed to imagine that we don't all have one or two of these around somewhere.

There would be no real benefit for a group buy b/c buying 13 makes the average cost $3.50.  $2 and change (plus paypal fees) definitely doesn't really change the game much if you're looking to buy the cables anyway.

I fully admit I should have looked into the cable thing first, but I had just assumed that since they were kiosk pulls that they wouldn't be included in either auction.  I had approached the original guy and asked him to put up another auction for $550+$100 shipping.  He put up one for $625+$100 shipping (both for 10).  (which would have been an extra $7.50 each)

So basically, I thought I was getting us all the same deal.  In reality, it's $5 on the not as good side.  I think the highest I told anyone the shipping would be was $18.  For that person, the original monitor could have been purchased for $80+$18 shipping = $98.  For this person, the one from me will be $18+70+$6 (rounding up) = $94.  Not as good as originally thought, but still a shade better.

At this point, I've already made the purchase and all I can offer is an apology.  To those who are closer, your shipping was less and it's still a little better yet.  I think I have been upfront enough to show that this wasn't intentional.

If anyone is in need of a power cable, let me know.  I have a few extras laying around and an toss on in your package when I send it.  I don't know if I have this many though so it would be first come, first serve.

I have so many cables laying around it's not even funny.  That's not a concern for me :)

Padstack,
No worries bud. You have done everything right by my count. This is still a great deal and I am sure everyone involved would have eventually bought one from the original guy @ $80 + shipping.

No apologies needed  :cheers:

May I hijack this thread for a minute. I purchased one of these from hitech assets?

Is this the same company?

I'm having an issue with mine http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=81373.0

If anybody has any answers, thank you.

Sorry for the hijack.
