Want a new HDMI cable? No? Bad luck. You'll need one for HDMI 2.1

As much as I love to bash Dixons, they haven't paid commission to their sales staff for quite some time now.

The main reason their sales staff try to sell cables with TVs and such these days is actually to avoid the angry idiots coming back and complaining that they couldn't connect the TV up when they got home because they didn't have the right cables.

Sure the cables they stock are somewhat overpriced, but only in the same way petrol at a motorway service station or food at a train station is overpriced, you pay for the convenience of getting quickly where you need it instead of waiting.
