Default cheap cable

Just received some very cheap 18AWG cable from rapid in their clearance section, spotted by chance on friday - just received today

Odd colour (blue in my case) , but cable's cable in my book

The price > £6 quid +vat

for 305 Metres !!, http://www.rapidonline.com/Cables-Co...1068/kw/011412

Some other 305Metre bargains there too, I got another 305 reel of slightly thicker stuff in white for £12+vat

No connection other than a satisfied customer

Bargains are always good, I still have most of a box (12 1kg reels) of proper solder thrown out from somewhere I worked because it was out of date (errrrr?). Fun to get home on my motorcycle, needs must etc.. Pays to be friendly with the storeman!
