Pretty decent deal for a 5 metre 28AWG HDMI cable.
Note it is HDMI v1.3
Note: HDMI v1.3 cables can support all current formats used including fullHD-3D & ARC(Audio Return Channel).
The only feature 1.3 cables don't support is Ethernet over HDMI, which there are no devices with this feature yet.
Are you sure about that? ARC?
Not all 1.3 cables will support 3D either…
Good explanation here:

Yep the max bandwidth/throughput for HDMI 1.3 & 1.4 are the same, so if the cable is certified high speed it makes no difference if it was under 1.3 or 1.4 specs.
So as long as the cable can handle the data rate, it makes no difference if the video is SD, 1080p or 3D, it should work without any problems.
Good deal considering the wire gauge and length. Cheapest by far. Thanks OP.
Pity they are in Hong Kong and would take up to a month to arrive, otherwise i would be keen as.
Most likely uses an extremely lowe wire gauge (AWG) though. There's a good chance of signal detoriation with a $5/5m HDMI Cable from Honk Kong though, it happened to me with a 10m
What's going on? Price has gone up to $25.72?!
Not my click on the link…
NICE
If anyone is looking for a cheaper/shorter cable I just bought this one: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/1-8m-HDMI-Cable-High-Speed-Hi-Def…
There's also one for $0.04 less if you want to be a true ozbargainer.
Edit: Also found some 1 meter cable for $1.89: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/1M-HDMI-Cable-Full-HD-HDTV-PS3-xB…
Every time I add to cart and then go to checkout WITH my DSE login, the price changes to $25.72. Tried different browsers, same thing.
If I proceed to checkout 'as a new user', then the transaction goes through fine. DSE still gets a neg from me.
Why bother?life is too short even shorter than that 5m cable.have a good day.this cable not worth for the stress.
Save $40 yeah right. Just looks like any other sub $5 cable you get delivered from all the other HDMI cable deals.
I visited one of their stores this morning and believe it or not, the 5m cables are actually $49.xx.
Similar price in Target, whilst Kmart's 1.5m was still $20.
The only problem? nobody buy this cable for $49.highly inflated.
How the ****!
My supplier can send me one for $10…WITH a four week wait! I think I should join the rest of the world and upgrade from my VGA cable to HDMI since the graphics card and monitor both support it. Do these make much of a difference?
Plus from me!
it makes a big difference from about 1280x720 up
hmm, Hard to say if i need it / if its worth it compared to the Ebay ones. Anyone know what the standard gauge is on 5m HDMI cables? IE the ebay ones?
The cable cost $1.96 and delivery cost $8.00
