| 752949 | 2009-03-03 06:14:00 | Yes people like Dick Smith make low markups on electrical machines, dvds phones, tvs, etc. But they make high markups on cables and accessories. If I had time I would go into Hardley Norman pretend to buy a DVD player then when they try to sell an expensive HDMI cable - ask them to show me the difference ! Could be one for Fairgo or Target or as someone said on here the Commerce Commission (when they have fixed our power prices) |

| 752954 | 2009-03-03 09:24:00 | Agree with all the comments so far. HDMI is in fact a data cable, so gold plating an HDMI cable is like gold plating cat 5. | pine-o-cleen (2955) | ||
