Is that site a joke? I get better deals at my local Lowe's.

No it wasn't meant as a joke I used them when I wired my basement with Cat6 cable.

250ft of Cat6 for $32.95.

Or the following kit for $48.95
250ft of Cat6
100 Cat6 plugs
Good quality crimp tool (is actually is good quality too)
Cable tester (yeah I know just a continuity tester not a big deal)

Can you show me some better links?

BTW, why do you have to insult me by asking if that was a joke? Thereby implying I am stupid?

Why not just say "those deals don't look so great to me" and show me why.

Since when is a legit question an insult? I'm sorry that you were offended by a simple question; you're the only one implying that you're stupid. The OP was asking for 100' of cat5e, not cat6, not 250ft, etc.

I could provide you with some better deals, but I don't want to add insult to injury.

Thanks, all =D

The pricing I provided was meant to show YOU that the pricing there is good. I didn't specificially check 100' lengths but thought that since I found a good buy there for my network cable needs it might be a good place to look for the OP as well. It was a suggestion.

And your "Is that site a joke?" comment WAS meant to be derogatory. You can admit that can't you?

If you were only looking to warn the OP that the site was not good then you could have simply said "the prices on that site don't appear to be so competitive."

Although I don't post a lot I have been here since the beginning, since before this version of the boards and I guess I rememeber there being more of a "family type" atmosphere.
