Wanted to make some promotion for this excellent webstore:
www.allekabels.nlAlle kabels means "all cables" and well......all is a big word, but they have an insane catalogue of all sorts of cables at good prices. Yes, you may find them a bit cheaper on far-east websites but with those you have to wait for weeks and sometimes longer and customer service is a nightmare.
I ordered various things at
www.allekabels.nl and I ALWYAS received them the next day. (You can order up to 21.00 to get next day delivery).
I recently wanted to order a monitor cable for my Atari 8 bit machines and due to some confusion in the information of that item I accidently ordered them at 0,2m. length which is of course way to short. It was partly my fault because the detailed description DID mention it correctly. However is sent them a message through their site, got a reply the same afternoon (on a Saturday) and they fully charged back my money incl. shipping costs so I could order the correct cables. I didn't even have to send back the wrong cables !
They had also corrected the info right away on their site.
Now that is what I call a great way of customer service, happy customer = returning customer.
Regretfully their website is in Dutch only but they DO ship internationally.
OH, and a tip on the Atari 8 bit video cable: I used to think that you needed a special cable, make yourself one, but it turns out I could order the standard DIN to 4x tulip cables. They have the correct pin out and because you have 4 tulip outputs you get 1 for audio, 1 for composit video and 2 for Y/C (or S-video) so it is truly universal cable. It even works with the old C64s that had a 5pin DIN video output.
The productnr. is 684 and it costs €3,80. Look under Audio kabel and then DIN kabel to find it, be sure to get the 1,2m. Long one
