SME Tonearm Question

I bought a brand new (NOS) SME 20/2 and IV.Vi tonearm and there was no tonearm cable in the box, even though the list of contents in the user manual states that one is included.

Can anyone here tell me whether it's actually included with their tonearms?  The dealer is telling me it is not.

Thanks

The SME IV.Vi was an arm made for SUMIKO when they were the distributors.  From what I know that arm did not include a cable,  but all other SME arms came with a cable
According to SME, the arm comes with a cable. I provided a link to the SME that states this quite clearly. (See above.)

Yes, SME has always included cables with this arm. It's even on the website:
"Audio lead Length 1.2m
Capacitance 140.0 pF per channel
Resistance 0.145 ohms per conductor"
