Shopping for component video cables

I found one at Best Buy for $50-$60(monster cable) but I don't have this much for a cable right now. Anyone know where I can look online for a better deal? It doesn't have to be Monster Cable, either.

One other alternative is to try online. You get better quality than Best Buy, and better prices than Radio Shack. One of the best online dealers is at:

Actually this is not true. I just checked the site and gold rca cables cost $10-$15 more then the similar Radio Shack cables. There is also no difference in quality from the cables they sell at this site and Radio Shack cables.

Yeah, stay away from accessories4less.com.
Check out partsexpress.com. A little bit better than Radio Shack if you buy in quantity, to offset the cost of shipping.
BTW, If you really want HIGH QUALITY component video cables, go to a computer store and pick up some BNC-BNC cable. These cables are infinitely better shielded than the Best Buy/Radio Shack RCA variety. Then check around on the net for some RCA-BNC plugs and you're set. It should run you under $20.
