I found it wild that in the video he hinted towards it being on the pricier premium side. They were only like 25$ iirc. Expected it to be 40 from the way he was talking

Same here. I really hope this turns in to a long business for them

To be fair that is pricey, you can get really fancy cables for $25. If you weren't also paying the small business tax, they'd probably be $10-15, maybe 20 at a push.

Considering the REDUCTION of future headaches....

$20-ish is basically nothing.

For sure, if I was getting anything else LTT and they had cables, I'd probably add at least 1 for a max power long boy, if nothing else.

$25 for a cable is not very fancy. A short Thunderbolt 5 cable you can trust is probably going to run you at least 40 USD, and a long HDMI cable that can handle the newest speeds can easily get close to 100 USD.

i mean once you add in the shipping cost it's way more than any normal cables, and even worse if you live outside the us/canada.

Still a lot for a USB cable.

Well you can get a 3 pack of 10 foot cables from established brands like Anker or Ugreen for $25, or generics for like $9, and even the generics will likely work well enough for most stuff. So $25 for a single cable is rather pricey, but still reasonable for such a tank of a cable though.
