Yes, the regular prices are inflated, but when they need to get rid of stuff, they throw it in the discount bin and it's ridiculously cheap.

A friend of mine used to work at CompUSA, and he handles inventory and such... He told me (I was buying a KVM switch and cables) that cables have the highest markup hands down of anything. he said it was something like a 1200% markup!

He gave me an awesome discount, and i ended up paying cost +10%. Saved a TON of cash!

Also check Big Lots. They have USB & printer cables at cheap prices. It's not the first place you think of when looking for stuff like that.
