Yup as long as its HDMI 1.4 a cheap cable will do exactly the same job as an expensive one. All that can really differ is build quality I've found.

Any HDMI cable will do aslong as it's HDMI 1.4 to support 3D..

Since HDMI is digital I'd assume a cheapo cable will do the exact same job as an expensive one.

I think you need 3D HDMI cables. (?) - Or was that just because they were getting bundles when buying their TV sold by Currys etc... and that's actually bollox?

IF it was just for HD then any would be fine. It's digital, so can only be on or off

I bought a couple of eBuyer fairly recently and they are pretty good TBH - and don't cost loads either (only a few quid we're talking here).

Gold plated connectors etc. etc.

OK, I know people rage about these and whetehr or not spending big money on them is worhtwhile or not etc. so I thought I'd ask, I've just got my new 3D TV and need 2 new HDMI cables for the PS3 (through which I'll play 3D Blu-rays) and my DVD player (Sony DVD with HDMI upscale)... what do I need? The SOny speaker stand thing I bought came with a short HDMI cable to be used to connect it to the TV and that seems good
