    Are you looking to use them for yourself or to resell? If they are for yourself, pick them up, it's a great deal.

    If these are the official Nintendo component cables, grab a set right away. $40 is a steal nowdays.

    ^ The only brand is the Nintendo brand, because of the chip inside the cable.

    Snagged a new, official one for $15 this weekend (knocked down from $40). Almost pissed myself when I saw it. Another store by me has a few of them for around $35 each....

    Definitely worth getting at least one for yourself at $40.

    $40 is a good price. I almost picked one up for $40 shipped on ebay, but decided not to at the last minute since I'm already planning to get a Wii at launch. I figure I'll just get the high def cable for that (most likely cheaper), and play the few 480p games the GCN has on the Wii.
