Cheap source of USB cable for my two C84s

Cheap source of USB cable for my two C84s

2004-06-09 by Nick

I recently got a C84 and yesterday ordered a second C84 from Office Depot to cannabilize the inks and then use with MIS EZ inks and now need two USB cables.  I hate to pay $20 each here in town, does anyone know of a cheap source for them.

Thanks to all for the C84 info also.

Try www.Buy.com.

I recently went through this (usb cable) excercise. I found that most all local sources 
for standard cables were horrendously overpriced (e.g., both CompUSA and Bestbuy 
charged $25 for a 3 meter Belkin A/B cable.) Then I checked at www.buy.com and 
found the exact same Belkin cable for $5.99/ea. So, even with an extra $5 for 
shipping  the cable would cost much less than any local retailer. Actually, I got free 
shipping by adding in a DVD to make my order add to $25; so compared to paying 
local prices, I essentially got my usb cable plus a  free "Lord of the Rings" DVD.
