Hello I found this site selling some USB cable at very cheap price. I was wondering if anyone ever bought from them and give me some feedback. Are they legit?

So I'm assuming nobody here has dealt with that company. So tell me do you guys know any place where I can find some good deals on USB cables? The $20-25 for one 6ft cable @ the local stores is a little too expensive for me.

I'm in the UK, so I haven't any experience of the supplier. Around £4-5 (about $7-9) is the usual price over here. I guess the easiest thing to do is to check out some of the branded stuff online, and see how they compare. 99c does seem a bit cheap - I wouldn't buy something like that over the net myself, as I'd be worried about the quality. But as you're in the US, comparing prices with those over here is pretty much impossible - we get ripped off big time on IT equipment.

What device are you wanting to attach to your pc? Sure, common USB cables are cheap but anything propietary or direct from the device's manufacturer would stick YOU with the price before you'd ever have the chance to stick the cable into any of the devices you need. :eek: Actually,if the cable that originally came with your device is bad, they'd most likely prefer that you just go-away and buy an off the shelf replacement anyway.

I usually get my USB cables from Sam's Club, if you have one near you. If I remember correctly, you get two 6-foot cables (Stratitec or Belkin, one of those) for right around 20 bucks. They do not have a huge selection of PC parts, but they usually have a good deal on what they do have.

A Lexmark printer... unfortunately it didn't come with a cable (and this habit seems common nowadays).
I will check the links you guys provided... thank you all for your help!

It has been about 7 months but I bought two USB printer cables (one for a Lexmark) from Newegg for 13.00

My apologies if this posts twice. We have a poor excuse for an ISP since it was sold to some company in FL I bought two USB cables for printers about seven months ago from NewEgg. Cost about 13.00 with shipping at that time.
