Fs.com are a well regarded company. The OP should contact them and see if there's a recall on those cables or something. Sounds similar to what happened with some mains power cables sold by a hardware store in Australia.

I don't regard them very well personally... I bought a bunch of DAC cables from them, only to have them start emailing me under the guise of assigning me a "account manager"... I blocked their domain from my mail server and told them to never contact me again.

  • They offer to provide you with personalized service and you block them? What do you do when you walk into a high end watch or clothing store?

    FS provides account managers and they are very useful if you are working on a project as they can guide you and help you.

    • Is it too much to ask to just be able to buy things without being chased around by someone?

      I have a Newegg business account (and maybe a few more for other pc stores, I'd have to check), but I literally never have them trying to get me to buy things. /shrug

    • Right, but sometimes your account manager's job is to manage a giant RMA as a result of their manufacturing department f'ing up. So while I am greatful she did a good job, I would have preferred to not need an account manager at all...
