Last week, Robbie at work told me about this new site he was using now for all his cable purchases, Monoprice.com. He was going through them because they had Cat6 cables at really low prices.

Tonight I went on there to look at getting some audio cables, 1/8" to RCA adapters. They had them, at just $1 for a six foot length. ONE DOLLAR! Even the best price I've found locally is over $5. I then started browsing the site and picked up a bunch of other things that I had been needing (Ethernet cables, USB cables, etc). I ordered almost two dozen cables and the total came to just over $20. Even if these are shitty cables, that's an insane price.

I placed my order at 10:08pm. I instantly recieved an automated confirmation email.
At 10:09 I recieved a personal confirmation that the order was being fulfilled.
At 10:15 I recieved both a notice that my order was fullfilled and shipped, and also a confirmation message from USPS with my tracking number.

Seven minute from placement to shipment.... this is unheard of! I've never had an online vendor with this fast of turnaround. And at ten o'clock at night! HOW THE HELL DO THEY DO THAT!?! And no, this isn't some chinese outfit, these parts are shipping from LA (Rancho Cucamonga to be exact).

Needless to say, I will be shopping from these guys from now on. They've got sections of the website set aside for computer parts, from CPUs to Video Cards, but the sections are all empty. I hope that means they will be adding more parts in the future.
