3.0 out of 5 stars
Gret costomer service by cord quality varies., August 31, 2010
This review is from: Premium Quality HDMI Gold Plated Cable 30' 30 Ft Feet 1080p for Play Station 3, Xbox 360 Elite, Blu-Ray with Ferrite Cores (Electronics)
I ordered these cords as a low cost option to hook up my HDMI compatible PC to my HDTV. I needed a long set and this seemed to fit the bill. Most stores I have been to don't carry HDMI cords in anything much over 12 to 24 inches so I was very impressed by there shear length.
I have to say the shipping was fast, so fast that actually had the product before amazon claimed I was supposed to have them.
That was the good part. The bad part was that my first set of cables failed and stooped working within a matter of days. I remember they failed so fast that amazon said I was still supposed to be waiting for them in the mail. I contacted the seller and they where very responsive about this issue.
I sent the cords back with a tracking number as they recommended. After about a month of waiting I contacted them back asking them why the item was not shipped. It was a good thing that I re-provided the tracking number in this mail saying it was delivered. The seller contacted me back and told me the item was lost in the mail but because I had proof that it was sent they sent me a replacement cord. I had it within days of that mail.
The new cords where different then the ones I had before. Unlike the first ones that seemed generic with no markings, the new ones had a brand named listed on them "Connectland". It was blatantly obverse they where not the same cords.
I have been using these new cords for a few months now with no issues and I absolutely love them.
Still when it comes to reviewing these cords, I have to state that you wont know what brand of cords you will be getting biased on my experience. It makes reviewing this product very hard. The good news is that if you have issues, they will repeace it so its not a total loss but this can be annoying to deal with.
I just hope the seller grew form this experience and no longer carry's the brand of cords I got on my first order.
I feel the seller can improve simply by carrying only the connectland cords I got as a replacement for this order or starts listing the cords by brand name. It would help the seller out a lot by only selling one brand of cords on this specific order so people know what they can expect when they buy this product. That is why many sites will list products by brand if they carry several kinds. The fact that they seem to change brands on this product makes it hard for me to say weather or not it's good. Consistency would help there sales a lot.
So to conclude, the first cords sucked and the new ones where great so I figured I would go down the middle and give this review a 3 out of 5.
