I have no idea as to the quality thereof, but my ToysRUs had a set, I think they were either Madcatz or the TRU brand, for 7.90, which seemed pretty good to me. Sorry, don't know how long they were or how good they are.
It doesn't show this set on the website, the website shows Sony brand; the set I saw at B&M were in a yellow package.

Yes, the Monster cables are very good, but simply way overpirced at $59.99.

I think I'm going to go to BB and pick up the MadCatz ones. I went to TRU, and apparently the 7.90 ones were clearance, because they are nowhere to be found. All they have now are the 29.99 Sony ones.
i've got 40 bucks on a gift card for BB, so I can spare 10 for these cables.
How in anyone's name can Monster get away with charging 59.99 for a product similar to one that Madcatz charges 9.99? The MC ones are 7 feet, versus Monster's 10 feet, but that couldn't account for that much.
That said, I've never bought Monster, my general understanding of them has been something like '5% better, 500% more money', especially for an average consumer [ie, someone who doesn't have a 10 grand setup.] I could get 3 Greatest Hits games for the price of the Monsters.
