Yeah until you tug too hard on your cheapy plastic terminals and they slide completely off the cable leaving them never as tightly attached as they were when you first bought them.
For the sake of the £3 your arguing about, its not worth the saving tbh.
Do you happen to sell cheap cables on ebay btw?0
