For potential buyers: if any damage happens to your cable (office chair runs over it, cat chews on it, rip the connector off, etc.  :)) ) I would be happy to fix it. Hopefully that will add some confidence to your purchase.  :)
And GLWS keymaster!

what material is that?

is it soft like what you get with CM cables or more plasticity?

also, where on Earth are you shipping from?

It's PET/Techflex sleeving like this (http://www.cableorganizer.com/braided-sleeving/).  It's not the best, but not the worst either.  It's what some of the early Whiskerbox cables used.

but is it soft?

I'm asking this because I have some cheap HDMI cables and they have they really tough plasticky stuff for braiding and constantly chafes my knuckles if I'm trying to pull some cord through the same cable routing path.  REALLY annoying to have to deal with.


basically, is this similiar to braiding you get on gaming periperals?  I haven't knowingly used any of those materials you're using as reference.

Gaming peripheral stuff is closer to cloth.  The plastic sleeving is either smooth or rough with denser weaves feeling rougher.  Since it's a loose weave, it tends to be smoother rather than rougher.
