...a product has a majority of ratings that are 5 and 1 out of 5? I'm looking at these wires and the reviews are basically, "garbage" or "works perfect".

Yes I know, but that's not what I'm asking.

It depends on what it is.

What are you considering buying?

Seems a lot of the one-stars are particularly because the cables don't work.

Given that many one-stars, I'd personally steer clear of it.

Yeah sounds like it's a toss up that you'd get working cables

I agree. Don't risk it with electronics imo

Entirely why I made this topic! I like the price, but it doesn't mean anything if the product doesn't work.

What about this one that has a lot of 1 stars, but less % than the other one had?

Get these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/cr/B0032GX47A/ref=mw_dp_cr

cost about the same as the two you posted, but better reviews. I haven't bought either of these, so keep that in mind

Thanks man!

You know, now that I think about it, I forgot to check if I can even use component cables.

I look for reviews elsewhere. If it's a unique item to that site I will check the reviews there that go into detail as to why they rated it as such. More often than not the valid reviews give resons gor the ratings and not just "nest evar!!" Or "sucks. Don't waste your money" Those are the only reviews worth considering.

Gotta read the reviews. Details help. If some clown just writes 'doesn't work' then I'm inclined to say they didn't set it up properly. Likewise with 'works great' as those could be bought.
