Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC

Hello,
Okay, so explain this to me. My dealer says that AQ Wel and/or Blue Yonder costs more than $8000 CAD for a 2 m XLR interconnect. And on Audiogon there is a .5 m Wel with dbs for $1895 and a Blue Yonder for $1360. Now are they 'real' of 'fake'. How does one discern this? Even AQ suggests there are fakes out there. They look real from the pics. I am not stuck on AQ by any means, but wouldn't this be a good deal if it was authentic. 

Also, a guy in Poland is selling a Crystal Cable Ultra interconnect for a reasonable price. I am a bit nervous (yes, it's true) about this deal, but it is a great product at a good price? 

So, guys, what do you think? 

Al,
That was pretty emphatic.  So much for hypothetical musical utopias LOL.

rinpoche,

The only thing I can say regarding your question above as to whether or not the 2 AQ cables are real or fake is that both members have good buyer feedback so one likely can expect that they are trustworthy.

Also, to your point, it is your ears and your budget and therefore your decision , not that of someone else that offered "direction"

My dealer loves them with the Wilson's.

I think this seems to be a good deal — used — and so if I didn't like them — for whatever reason, I could always sell them again.
