All are the same pretty much. That said I recommend buying these since I bought 4 of them and they are all great.

$10 with overnite express (Yeah that's how it's spelled) 1 day shipping. Keep in mind though I live in Southern California which is where their warehouse is located. Still I would think $11 max for standard shipping. To check for sure add it to your cart and you can put in your zip code to calculate tax and shipping.

they arent the same.

HDMI cable with different price have differenttrasnfer rate (some can only support up to 720p), color depth (8bit, 12bit...), refresh rate (60hz, 120hz), sound quality, reliability, and legneth.

The only real different is in the quality of the wire used inside, connections (golf plated etc) and shielding. Being a digital connector there's not much of a problem from interference unlike analogue so just a cheap cable will do the job.

If you have a Big Lots close by they have a deal on a package of two HDMI cables that are 6 feet long and are rated at 1.3 which supports 1080p for $12.00. You can buy the package and always have a spare on hand if needed.

There really isn't any noticable difference. Sure, the $100 wires will have better specs but next to a tv with $10 wire, it's the same thing. NewEgg is a great website to buy wires.

Basically, if you pay more than $10 for an HDMI cable you're getting ripped off.
