Ha! Well, I resell and fund through my second business, so it's not like I have a stack of a dozen cables laying around
You can absolutely get something with a GREAT build for less than $100.
Here is my favorite cable under $100:

Be sure to request a smaller slider- the one that's on there is designed for 8 core cables.
If you don't mind non-Litz, you can spend even less:

If you purchase the second one, be sure to order plugs G, H or I, since those are a free $6+ upgrade over the standard plug on that build.
Also, I have a tendency to look for bargains. I think the 7N UP-OCC Litz copper/ silver wire was mis-priced on the site. I got an 8 core cable with TOTL hardware for $140.
