I'm looking to buy a HDMI cable to connect my Pavillion 6516TX laptop to the LCD TV. I checked out the local ezone (Koramangala, Bangalore) and the prices are insane. 1500 for 5ft, 1900 for 10 ft and 2500 for 5m length (all Panasonic).

On ebay.in, I see cables advertised for half the amount (around 1000 for 3m).

Any idea where I can pick an affordable cable in Bangalore?:)

Its about quality. The best cost 10k for 1ft ;)

Go for the ebay cables if they suit your budget :)

But does cable quality matter much for a digital signal like what HDMI carries? You either get the signal or you don't, there's no inbetween like with an analog signal.
 
^^ s. you are correct, its being digital you need not worry about the cable quality.

@Anish, where can we find these 10k for a ft HDMI cables? (it means its around 31k for one meter)

In my limited shopping, I couldn't find too many options and finally decided to go for the Panasonic and bought it from ezone for 2K (3m length). I feel that I paid more than I should have, but I finally have the satisfaction of seeing a full life sized 1280x800 resolution picture. It looks fantastic:clap:
 
Congratulations for your purchase!

I myself got my HDMI cable as an add-on with Philips Unscaling DVD player. DVD player was available without HDMI cable for Rs 600/-. So effectively it cost me that much. I am satisfied with quality.
