Markup on cables at Hi-Fi stores and even Mid-Fi stores like BB is phenominal - hundreds of %, sometimes even thousands depending on the cable/accessory, that's why it's so easy for them to give you a "good deal" on cables and accessories when you buy a package, and they still end up making a killing on the cables/accessories. Percentagewise, it's their best moneymaker.
