I had an experience similar to Pilar in that I lost the auction and got an email asking if I wanted the cables at my lower price - I passed.
I did win another auction, quick communication back and forth with the mfg - while the auction didn't indicate that they had some materials backordered , the mfg was upfront about it, asked if it would present a problem and when I said no, said that they would not bill me until ready to ship. In the end I got the cable within a week.
