Looking to buy a reasonably priced 1-1.5m power cable (UK plug) that someone may have stashed away and is surplus to needs.
New device gone into the rack and just want to upgrade from the bundled kettle lead.

Word "reasonably priced" in hifi world can have very broad meaning:) Better define what that means for you...
But I would suggest building one from Audiophonics.fr or Mcru.co.uk, its very easy and you'll get much better bang for buck!

Hi,
I have several Furutech power cables for sale on eBay.ie
Just put "Furutech" in the search bar. Anything that you see displayed on Orange leather is what I am selling.
Buy from me on this platform, and I can offer you another 10% off, as I will save on having to pay eBay fees.
This was something that I was doing during Covid to keep me busy whilst furloughed from work.
I am looking to see off what I have now. I am practically offering cost prices. i.e. I just want to re-coup my costs.

Fair point. I think I was looking for something in the sub €200 region secondhand. With MCRU, I think it's out because of extra customs & duty loading from UK. Haven't built one before, but I'll have a look at the French site. Many thanks.

Many thanks @meep. Eventually went for a new cable from Titan Audio in the North. Spent a little more than expected, but got a significant reduction on their Black Friday offer. Have it wrapped up for the Mrs to give it to me on Christmas morning.

No worries
May your electrons be correctly aligned and purified 😜
I have a few Mark Grant figure 8s and Chord Company orange and purple 3 pin kettle leads of various lengths if you're looking for more or know anyone that is.

The TA Eros. Don't know what effect it'll have on any of the components until I begin to play around with it in mid-Jan.

Nice one. Don’t worry it won’t be too hard to hear what effect it’ll have on the system. Do report back when you’re ready.
