Works out to being only $2 per cable delivered.
These claim to be 100w/5A, only USB 2 data transfer speeds.

Not abnormal, a lot of charging only cables do this to save cost, like these similar deals

If you want guaranteed charging speed and max data transfer, USB 4 or Thunderbolt is the way to go
What is the normal price?
$20
thank you!
These are actually rated 60W. Product code: JBUC5PK60W
Don't count on them to let you charge >60W (3A) on laptops. These are not e-Marked so if your laptop requires e-Marked cable for fast charging, these won't work.
That's unfortunate if they are not e-marked, I thought allowing 100w charging pretty much required you to have an e-marker chip.
Though this would make a lot of sense since the claimed 5A cable I got with the J. Burrows 65w power supply for $20 (OW has since jacked the price by a lot), would only allow 60w through it, I thought I just got a dud.
This brnd burrow is (for me) equal to anko …. basically $2 stuffs from aliexpress re branded and sold $20 local
basically $2
Perfect. 5 x $2 = $10 but I get it immediately.
Good cables for the kids - when the cables break I can give them a lesson on looking after things better.
Ooo "parenting"! You don't see that too much these days haha.
Will there be any defect or quality issue with these cables that makes them sell so cheap?
At $2 each they already make $1.50 profit….
Don't expect high quality. You get what you paid for. They seem better than the AmazonBasics $1.80 junk USB-C cable, but they are still just basic cables (basically, think of them as USB-A cables but with USB-C plugs).
Each cable includes a small integrated cable tie. These cables do feel a bit bulky considering these are only 3A/60W and USB 2 only (minimal number of wires, no e-Marking chipset).
My amazon basics cables are bullet proof??? I do buy longer ones though
I like that these are specified to be black but all photos show them in white.
$2/cable… looks like I'll be returning the purple crossbody charge cable from Kmart that cost me $3.
FYI, based on the following import database:
JBUC5PK60W - 5 pack of 60W max (3A 24+30AWG) USB2.0
JBUC3P100W - 3 pack of 100W max (5A 23+30AWG) USB2.0 E-Mark!
JBUC2P100W - 2 pack of 100W max (5A 22+32AWG) USB3.2 E-Mark!
All of them are priced $10 @ OW
So the 2 pack is USB 3.2 or 3.1?
As per user review it is a USB-C 3.2 gen 2 cables with 10Gbps data transfer (though listing mentions as 100 Mbps)

Is this normal?
