      Hi JV,
      When I state the Last Sold price it gets edited and removed. Unsure of what you would like me to do here? You seem to comment on our deals every time we do not put a last sold price with negative comments. If we have done something to upset you please let me know.

        No offense but your passive aggressive replies are only making you less likeable. I suggest you put a lid on it or risk damaging your company's reputation.

          No offence, I think it's a fair response.

          • andresampras on 20/09/2021 - 16:56

            @justtoreply: My wording came off harsher than I intended. Given OP's replies through this post, the vibe i get is mild defensiveness / passive aggression. Which, in combination with a claim of a sudden 80% price drop on an HDMI cable, means people may not be 100% trusting.

            Edit: thanks for de-Americanising my spelling of offence, I'd lost my way.

          I just think Rio got fed up with being trolled. Thought the responses were reasonable, though I have no idea what was said as I found the special way to block annoying comments some time ago, which makes for a much more amenable time on OzB.

        • scottb721 on 20/09/2021 - 18:15

          By negging the deal he is essentially saying exactly that.

      Ever tried getting a 4k 60hz HDR signal over a cheap 10m cable? i went through 4 of them ranging from $30 to a $100 active cable before i gave up. Only thing i didnt try was a fibre optic HDMI cable, but they are far more expensive than this cable's claimed RRP. I got constant sync issues with the picture dropping out. Not all HDMI cables are made to spec, even ones that claim to be 'certified' and able to transmit 18Gbps.

      • TimR31 on 20/09/2021 - 15:33

        Yeah, I need a ~12m cable for my projector in the ceiling, sadly haven't had much luck with traditional cables being reliable over 10m, and the $80(!) fibre-optic one I bought off Amazon died after less than 2 years… Sucks that the market is small so not much competition

            @ky1975: Which one did you use please?
            I tried some ebay one and didnt even work with 1m cat5e ethernet cable.

            • ky1975 on 20/09/2021 - 22:31

              @JVO: We were looking at a pair of HDMI over Ethernet extenders last year for our church because the long HDMI cable that we have was not working reliably, but somehow we got it to work, we didn't end up using any extenders.

              I suggested that because TimR31 has issues with the fiber optic solution.

              Do your extenders have proper power or USB power? I would go with ones that come with power supply.
              Sorry I couldnt be more helpful.

            • DanielP2 on 20/09/2021 - 22:47

              @JVO: cat5e is limited to 1Gbps isnt it?
              hdmi can require 10, 18 or 40 (roughly) depending on the standard and what res/refresh u are trying to display.
              That may have been your issue.

      Scoptec's better - 18.0 Gbp/s - for 4K@60Hz (HDMI 2.0). RIO's worse - 10.2 Gb/s's for 4K@30Hz (HDMI 1.3/1.4)

    Various styles of HDMI cables, as little as $12 for a 10m cable. I saw a nicer "HDMI 2.0 with ethernet" grey braided cable for $28 in the list. $200 might have been what this cable cost before, but it wasn't a competitive price then and $39 is barely reasonable now, sorry dude.

    Ignoring the RRP for this product (which other retailers are selling for, quick search finds this https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/265222046491?chn=ps&mkevt=1&mkci… and this https://www.rio.com.au/product/qe6006-1m-4k-ultra-hd-hdmi-ca…), $39 isn't a bad price for a 10m HDMI cable. There might be cheaper brands around, but this is about as cheap as I can see for this product.

    Don't go after the OP for a brand's RRP - that's their problem not his.

    RIO provides excellent support and customer service, irrespective of the RRP this is a good deal for this type of cable, if you also look at their other listings they do sell HDMI cables for hundreds of dollars.
