Default USB Cable for Futaba 4YF

I'm looking for the cable for Futaba radios with the square 6 pin to USB... a retailer in the USA is the only place I'll buy from. The only ones i can find in stock are from China... whats a good place to find one? I'm surprised there isn't a guide stickied for this in the sims threads.

What's wrong with the ones from China? I got mine in less than a week. It may not be domestic, but at least the Chineese aren't whining about the Star Spangled Banner not being translated into their language...

English isn't exactly a first language when buying from China. Other issues include dealing with wrong product being shipped, higher shipping fees, and longer wait times.

Lets say they sent a bad product/wrong product:

I have to pay to send it back (1-2 week shipping)
Wait for problem to be resolved (1-4 weeks)
Product get sent back and in hope its the right one (1-2 weeks)

Total time in waiting... 3-10 weeks.

Yeah, I see your point. The only thing I got from over there was this cable. They sent it when they said they would, and got here before they said it would. Probably the only dealings I'll have with anyone from over there.
I guess you've already seen [link=http://cgi.ebay.com/RC-Simulator-Cable-fits-Futaba-JR-Hitec-Mult-FMS-XP-USB_W0QQitemZ170151515935QQihZ007QQcategoryZ34056Q QssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem]this one[/link] on E-Bay. Kinda expensive if you buy it now ... but when I was looking, they were going for $17 to $21.

Thats not for the square 6 pin. Thats for the ones they have pictured. They dont have bids on the one i'm looking for. really expensive for a cable because its only "buy it now".
