Before you believe a bad review about us

We would like to respond openly to every negative review about us. Many are posted anonymously, so we cannot reach those customers directly. This open letter is our reply, and we would be grateful if you took a moment to read it.

But here is what a one-star review will never tell you:

  • We import from 70+ official distributors. That is why you pay far less than local retail — and why delivery takes longer. We publish the date before you pay, never after.
  • You can pay only when your goods land in Johannesburg. Pay on Arrival, no full payment up front. Ask yourself what scammer offers that.
  • Nobody has ever lost money with us. You get the product, or you get a refund. There is no third option, and there never has been.
  • We are part of the ITwork group — ten years trading in Europe, nine stores, thousands of positive reviews.
  • Johannesburg and Cape Town stores open this year — real shelves, real stock, walk in and buy the same day.

We are not satisfied with our review scores, and we are not going to fix them by hiding anything. We are fixing them by being faster, clearer and easier to reach than any reason to complain.

Read the full letter — photos and video of real shipments, and a straight answer to every accusation.

With gold-plated HDMI Type A connectors, support for up to 4K@60Hz (4096 x 2160) and a data throughput of 18 Gbit/s, the cable also supports HDCP 2.2, CEC and ARC for audio return. The cable is ultra-flexible and comes in black, suitable for professional and home AV setups.

Advantages

Suitable for

  • Connecting media players, set-top boxes or game consoles to TVs or monitors at short distance
  • Home theatre systems requiring ARC for returning audio to AV receivers or soundbars
  • Professional AV setups where 4K@60Hz video and HDCP 2.2 compliance are required

How to use

Connect one HDMI Type A end to the source device (for example a Blu-ray player, console or set-top box) and the other end to the display or AV receiver. Ensure both devices support the desired HDMI features (HDCP 2.2, ARC, CEC) in their settings. Route the ultra-flexible 0.5 m cable to avoid sharp bends and secure it using built-in locking spike if present to prevent accidental disconnection.

Recommendations

For optimal 4K@60Hz performance, use the cable for short runs (0.5 m) between devices and verify device firmware and HDMI settings when HDCP 2.2-protected content or ARC is required.
