    yes. seriously

    10m pair of ofc, screened RCAs for a tenner, decent scart lead for a tenner (the one down from the ingot gold ones), 3m long 3.5mm to 2rca lead for £8. Thats about 66% off retail prices.

    I can just see it now:-

    Dad: Hey kid, do you want a Playstation 2?
    Kid: No, dad I really want one of those lovely Ixos SCART cables. All the kids have got them!

    :D

    i was quite surprised to see them too. They were hanging about (the cables, not the kids) with the overpriced £14.99 Firewire cables

    I have seen QNEX 1 and QNEX 2 cables at RS Components, I am not sure how much they were but I have a feeling they would be cheaper than the HIFI shops I will check how much they are.

    The best bargain though is the pound store in Picciddily Gardens Manchester, they are selling Acoustic Research gold plated interconnect with silver conductors and teflon insultation (3 phonos to scart) for just £1

    I bought 6 of them but the the second time I went back he said "you're not selling them are you because I'm not selling them to you if you are" my face went red and mumbled they are for family.

    So I have not been able to go back since. Ebay is flooded with them though, I sold one for £5 today but I am going to keep one for myself, and the rest I sell at Christmas.
