Has anyone used the RockAuto battery cables?

I am in need of replacement battery cables, and Rock Auto has a few reasonably priced choices.

CABLE,BAT NEG Used Together With 88860138/4ST30 WHEN REPLACING OE CABLE $10.97 $0.00 $10.97

Has anyone used their battery cables? Am I better off ordering from MazdaTrix @ 4x the cost per cable?

I made my own from some damn good quality cables and ends at a stereo shop, cost a bit, but they are good cables.
