Gr55/Gk3 compatible 13 pin din male to male cable.
I was looking for good quality Gr55 compatible cables at a reasonable price. I have 2 branded cables which have been hit and miss to be honest. Coolnovelties offered a great price plus free delivery within UK. Cables arrived and are as described and the locking mechanism is very positive. Add in the red cap to protect the din pins and its just brilliant. Price excellent, quality excellent, delivery swift and free from a retailer you can contact. Very Happy. Now considering 5m cable when available.

One of the best places to buy retro Computer leads from
I’ve bought from cool novelties lots of times before through eBay and Amazon and I know their deliveries are usually very fast. This order took six days to arrive but I can see that it’s a Royal Mail thing. They sent it 24 hour service but I can see that the package has had a bit of travel. The leads I bought were the Atari ST and BBC B scart/RCA leads. Their work is top notch and know they’ll work perfectly

I buy 13Pin components and cables from coolnovelties. Just recently I purchased three 13-pin GK cables, and was very impressed with the quality, not to mention the additional red connector dust covers. Dust covers add years of life to multipole connectors. Big thanks to Andy and Sue from coolnovelties.co.uk

It is fantastic to get the Amiga 1200 Scart cable (23pin) as advertised on your website. The whole process was so simple and everything was very clear and efficient.
With a Scart / HDMI converter, I can now play my Amiga games from 38 years ago. Happy Days.
