I was just about to buy an 8 dollar 10 foot micro usb cable for my ps4 so I could charge it while playing it from my chair, but I thought I'd give a look at best buy to see if there were any better deals, and I happened upon this (it comes in different colors, white, black, blue, red)

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/eforcity-silicone-skin-ps4-controller-case-and-10ft-micro-usb-2-in-1-cable-for-sony-playstation-4/1309458875.p?id=mp1309458875&skuId=1309458875&st=10%20ft%20micro%20usb&cp=1&lp=3#tab=buyingOptions

It has the cord (colored cord even) and a silicon skin for my ps4.  Seems like a noticeably better deal then what I was about to buy, but I have no knowledge of eforcity as a brand.  Does anyone here have any experience with their products? 

Any "DON'T BUY THAT CRAP, I had one but it messed up after using it 2 minutes!" testimonials from you guys that I should know, or are they a decent/acceptable brand?

 
I never have used that before buy I have bought a few HDMI cables from them and only 1 has never worked. Every 6ft cable I bought did fine and only the 10or12 ft one didn't work. I think their items may be cheaper on amazon as well but not sure.

I would say as a company tey are not bad but I have never had a lot of issues from the items I bought except the 1 cable
 
I strongly second this suggestion. Amazon-branded AmazonBasics cable would be a second option besides Monoprice.
Couldn't find a 10ft micro usb version from AmazonBasics. As for monoprice, I realize that they tend to be the go-to place for cables, but I haven't ordered there in a while, I'd probably have to do a password reset and add my new credit card details (I'm lazy), and I kind of want that little extra silicone skin for my ps4, and also for my cable to be colored to differentiate it from the dozens of other usb cables I have, so I just went ahead and decided to try them out.

What is the significance of 24AWG?

Went ahead and bought both the best buy bundle and the ebay link you sent me.  Will probably be able to use the extra one for something else, I don't have a lot of micro-usb cords, unlike the mini-usb ones, of which I have dozens.
