Hi,
I bought two different 2.5" IDE extension cables from
www.cablesonline.com and both had manufacturing
defects with the female connector.
I returned them for a refund, but I only received a
refund for the items, not the shipping and handling costs.

While they aren't MA/COM quality, I had only one defective one out of
about 30 (the BNC female had a decentred pin), and they cost about 1/5
of what MA/COM or Pomona want.
I'd certainly buy from them again.
Cheers

How much shipping ? Some places only charge actual. Others tack on some. some eBayeers make the shipping so high, which is not refundable in the event of a return, that it is not worth sending back. Of course in response, eBay charges its percentage on the shipping portion as well.
I wuld not go so far as to condemn a place for one thing. I did condemn one place but that was for two things. onbe wass a counterfeit IC, an STK I was hoping to be NOS. It wasn't, it failed ar the second power up. That didn't do it, and they did give a refund. What did it was later I ofund the 100 uF/35 volt lytics I ordered were 25 volts.
Sorry.
I've never had to send anything back to Digikey, but I like how they work except for one thing. TheyDO charge aqctual shipping and they do pack and box verynicely. Then you get your $100 order and the shipping was like $5.
I wonder ho they do manage that. Well not really, they must have a really well layed ut set of warehouses and perhaps a bunch of automation involved as well.
Thing to remember is they did not build it. I have no affiliation, but if they will at least take them back that os to the good. Now if they don't make a stivk with their vendor(s) and simply restock them and sell them to someone else that is a different story.
