Was looking for some 5m cables to run in the wall for my TV. This was the cheapest I could find. $9 delivered to Melbourne.

Even though the site doesn't mention 4K anywhere, I have bought 2x and can confirm they work perfectly fine with 4K HDR content (tested with Xbox One X gaming, and also Planet Earth 2 with HDR).

Enjoy!

UPDATE: Yellow is out of stock but the red cable is still in stock. Use the coupon code as noted below by wikiwiki.

Also, I tried PayPal as a method and it didn’t work so used Credit Card and went through. UPDATE: seems PayPal works for some so try it first.

        Totally agree, so sad.

        As long as its a High Speed cable it can handle all the latest specs of devices out now. The shielding might matter with distances over 10M, but anything with 5m and under….go for glory and pick anything!

        That being said, these cables are THICK, so they seem JUICY and repellant to interferance!

      Honestly hearing that they would give a compensation just because delivery was a little late makes me think better of the company rather than worse.

      Were you hoping they would have given you a full refund and also kept the product? That's.. bold.

      • idonotknowwhy on 21/03/2018 - 13:07

        Were you hoping they would have given you a full refund and also kept the product? That's.. bold.

        Nope, I wasn't hoping for anything from them, and was surprised they wanted to bribe me to remove my honest review.

        Also note, I did not neg this deal, I was just saying that I don't recommend them. The service was poor until I reviewed my purchase, after which they wanted me to remove my review.

        You might as well buy hardware online, where it's cheaper, or go to a better store like addictedtoaudio if you want service.
        As a poster above stated, this cable is cheaper at officeworks.

        • Harold Halfprice on 24/03/2018 - 21:44

          Calling it a bribe is a bit much. You expressed dissatisfaction with their service and they tried to remedy the situation and make you, the customer, happy.

          I also bet you never contacted them to express you dissatisfaction, but rather went straight to giving negative feedback.

        • idonotknowwhy on 24/03/2018 - 21:49

          @ILikeBargenz: nope,I reached out a few times.
          At least they didn't post my real name in public on retaliation for the feedback.

        • Harold Halfprice on 24/03/2018 - 21:51

          @idonotknowwhy:

          So they refused to offer any remedy when you contacted them initially? And only after you gave negative feedback they offered a remedy?

        • idonotknowwhy on 24/03/2018 - 22:11

          @ILikeBargenz: yep. I didn't even want or expect compensation, just wanted an explanation. The thing is, I usually like boutique audio shops (I bought an amp) which is why I pay more to support them, rather than buying from o/s.

    • iamafreak on 21/03/2018 - 11:25

      their staff instore are so unhelpful and desperate to upsell it's pathetic.

      One example: went to buy an HDMI cable for our new TV and of course salesperson wants us to buy an expensive one. He asks "would you really use a $10 cable on a $4000 TV?"

      ???? smoooth m8.

      • Ryballs on 21/03/2018 - 12:36

        To be fair many salespeople are trained to up-sell cables in this way (myself included) as there is a lot of margin in them and nowadays the main purchase is often gutted due to online competition. With majority of retail electrical stores, their whole commission structure resolves around selling expensive addons, usually premium cables and extended warranties. Typically if a salesperson doesn't get sell x cables/warranties, they only get minimum wage, which is why they push it so hard.

        While I agree that the practice is unethical (especially now we use digital signals that are not degraded by cable quality and consumer law covers a lot of what an extended warranty does but for free), in my experience it more due to management enforcing it than an issue with the salespeople themselves. As many brick and mortar stores probably wouldn't even turn a profit without these expensive addon sales, the only solution to this I can think of is killing off physical stores and just having everything online.

        • R-Man on 21/03/2018 - 13:48
          +1

          Very good points, I agree it must be managers or owners pressuring salespeople into this.

          I still consider Selby my first place to visit for any wall mount or AV room related products (recently we bought ceiling speakers). So does everyone else, judging by the number of visitors I see there. Because of this success*, I just hoped the staff could be allowed to act with more dignity in their upsell attempts.

          (* I now get that success is just my perception and they may actually not be making profit)

        Upselling happens everywhere, from fastfood to retail to car dealerships. Employees are told and required to upsell - it's how they increase their margins. It's how large retail stores can offer cost price/below cost price items.

        I don't like it as much as anyone else, but if you do your research before hand (which most of us here do) then it doesn't really affect you. Just decline their offer and that's it. Playing the devil's advocate here, but i guess if these suckers that buy overpriced accessories didnt exist, retail stores would probably change their business strategy and wouldn't be so inclined to slash their margins on bigger products.

    • zqipz on 21/03/2018 - 12:29

    I've bought from Selby in the past, good delivery times and product is perfectly acceptable. It's very competitive pricing, but don't be fooled into thinking its cheap crap that doesn't work. For instance my last purchase was a 30m length of HDMI cable. Thick cable, no digital dropouts, hasn't failed once sending Foxtel to the other side of the house via a powered two way splitter (also purchased from Selby). And the cable itself is thick high quality stuff, not thin Ebay crap.

    Nothing wrong with Selby, bought from them heaps before. But, if you run into issues fitting HDMI's thru conduits in walls like I did (builder put 20mm instead of 25mm conduits) then these are the bomb. Have bought from these guys before (bricks & motor store also)…great cables…absolute life saver. I once had to shave down a cable (took a razor to the plastic head) so I could fit it in until I found these.

    • llama on 21/03/2018 - 21:02

      Round cable means it may have the correct twists and shields. Flat cables may not shield the data transmission lines properly, so lots more noise pickup from environment. More noise means more data errors which means more transmission retry which means slower.

      Maybe OK for short runs, and not sure how it affects HDMI but for Ethernet flat cables are a massive fail.
