Default micro usb cable

So I'm looking at the micro usb cables on amazon.. which micro is the evo? type a/b/c/d/. etc.. hopefully type b.. only 4 dollars shipped. Why do they charge $20 or more locally?

There is only one type of micro cable, micro not mini and standard USB on the other end.

Because people are willing to pay $20. It costs $1 or less to make.. nice markup, eh? I bought two OEM Samsung made cables for $5/each shipped on eBay.. couldn't be happier.

BTW: Stay away from aftermarket cheapo cables.. they go bad. I've gone through 2-3 Mini USB cables when I had my Hero.
