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.

The Vivolink PRO HDMI CABLE W/LOCK SPIKE 5m is a high-performance HDMI 2.0 cable designed for reliable transmission of high-definition audio and video. With gold-plated HDMI Type A connectors and a 5 m length, the cable supports HDMI 2.0 features including 3D and a maximum resolution of 4096 x 2160 (4K) at 60 Hz with HDCP 2.2, CEC and ARC. The cable is built for flexibility and stable signal transfer, and includes a locking spike for secure connector retention.

Advantages

The cable delivers up to 18 Gbit/s bandwidth for high-quality 4K@60Hz video and multi-channel audio. Gold-plated HDMI Type A connectors improve contact reliability and corrosion resistance. The built-in locking spike provides a firmer connection for installations where cables may be moved or pulled. The cable jacket is ultra-flexible to ease routing in tight spaces while maintaining signal integrity.

Suitable for

  • Connecting 4K TVs and monitors to set-top boxes, Blu-ray players or PCs
  • Home theater systems requiring ARC and CEC functionality
  • Professional AV installations needing a secure HDMI connection

How to use

Insert the HDMI Type A connector into the HDMI output of your source device (for example a Blu-ray player, streaming box or PC) and the other end into the HDMI input of your display or AV receiver. Ensure the locking spike engages to secure the connection. Select the appropriate HDMI input on your display and, if necessary, enable HDMI-CEC or ARC in device settings to use remote control pass-through or audio return channel features.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid sharp bends and kinks in the cable and keep cable runs away from strong electromagnetic sources. If you experience handshake or HDCP issues, reconnect both ends and verify that connected devices support HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2.
