Are these the same?

This adapter costs $57.49

This adapter looks like exactly the same thing, but only costs $0.50

If they're the same, how can a store like Staples overcharge by that much?

It looks like your standard Molex connectors. The Staples on is a 10 pack and a name brand, thats why I love generic bulk connectors

Still at 10/pk that's much more than the other site. I would say different manufacturers and a bigger profit margin on Staples side.

you wouldn't pay $50+ for 10 OF THE ANTEC ONES?

Who's taking that extra mark-up: Staples or Antec?

A little from column A, a little from column B... What happens is Antec buys them from SVC, sells them to Staples and passes the savings onto you. It's the American way...

more like antec decides what Staplhells will pay for Y connectors and SVC just makes them
