The fact that the main page states this listing has 24 pictures, it peaked my interests. How can someone take some many pictures of a standard coax cable? Then I read the listing and even more flabbergasted. This seller must sell tons of poopbox cars. [Link: newlondon.craigslist.org]KOT

That's a Silence of the Lambs post. You never make it home from picking up that coax. No way in hell.

Keep in mind that most folks still pay $90 at Best buy for HDMI cables. I imagine that 20' of "coax" is at least $25.

With all of those pictures and the text, this guy must be a great seller, right? Must be a high end cable, right? It will make my TV picture better, right? “RG/59” — (sophisticated tech term) must be state of the art, right? #18 wire (whatever that means) — gotta have it!
To me, it looks like something dug up from the bottom of a junk box or the floor of a weekend flea market. At $25 a pop, my junk box will make me rich.
The pictures are not so clear, but one center pin seems a little short and the other seems heavily oxidized (ancient cable).
