cablewholesale.com
http://www.cablewholesale.com/cgi-bin/search.cgi?body=search&text=HDMI

3 ft. - $20
6 ft - $21.25
10 ft - $25.00

The only issue with cablewholesale is that the shipping rates suck.

Edit: Looks like svideo.com has cablewholesale beat on prices. Looks like they have a sale on HDMI cables right now. Their shipping rates aren't too bad either.

An even better choice would be to to to Ebay and look for a seller who goes by the name of Mashy76. He sells high quality HDMI cables for only $10 shipped. I know it's sounds suspect, but he's the real deal. I've bought off him twice, so I can confirm the quality of his cables. His company's name is Monoprice.com . Check it out for you self, he has 1000s of positive feedback.

if you have an ok or shitty (lol) tv: buy something cheap.

Yes monster is crap, they think people are stupid. It's a long story just take my word for it.

Go with svideo.com I have bought a few cables and I saw no difference between them and the monster cable I bought, and A lot cheaper.

I ordered a DVI to HDMI cable from svideo.com just to test the quality since they are so low priced. They even offered free shipping. Heres to hoping its good.

I also ordered 2 HDMI cables from svideo.... the whole thing about cables with digital is not the same as your analog cables... there it DOES matter what type of cables you use and the more you spend the better the picture looks... with DIGITAL HDMI cables, you cant make a digital signal better or cleaner then it already is...I already tested this theory out when I bought the LG upconvert 1080i dvd player (which went back... btw) using HDMI... there is NO difference. Everything is displayed on my sony grand wega III 42" LCD... after taking back the LG I bought a Denon Hi-Def dvd unit.

Monster cable makes a great quality product... ALL my other cables are either monster or accoustic reseach (digital audio) but for your DVI or HDMI hookups do NOT overspend and buy the 100.00 cables
