I must admit, Apple do sometimes overprice their products.
Like the USB-Dock cable for $19.99, where as i can go to iGearUSA and get the same cable [Black or white] for $7.99

So most of the time i buy my accessories from iGearUSA and SmartPhoneExperts
YOU?
 
Amazon.com for a lot of things...

Yeah...amazon and eBay. You can find cases and screen protectors for literally under a dollar. I kept seeing that "Wow Cases" ad here on MacRumors, so I bought a white case for my iPhone 4 for about $12.00. Still waiting for it to arrive.

Wireless emporium on eBay for OEM apple sync cables. $4.99 with free shipping. I have 2 of them and they are definitely OEM apple cables that work with the bumper. :apple:

I'm all for them if they work with the bumper! Do you have a link?
 
Apple mostly. I ordered a case for my 3GS yesterday from Apple simply because they can get it to me faster than iskin.com can. I've gone to BestBuy for some things as well.

I don't always go by price, I go by shipping times also.

A few weeks ago, I was going to buy a 8Gb 3GS from Apple but they didn't offer overnight on that phone. I went right over to AT&T and ordered it and got it the next day with free shipping.

I like getting things very fast. 🙂

AT&T on some accessories; only b/c I receive 50% off on all accessories from AT&T.
 
monoprice

But I bought a bunch of accessories ie cables and cigarette lighter adapters from www.hdaccessory.com

I bought their products for my 3g and haven't had a problem yet with any for the i4.

Great value IMO
 
Dealextreme. Just ordered five USB cables and three power adaptors that look exactly like Apple's for $15. Also, eBay. I bought a full iPhone 4 silicon case for 99 cents and a silicon bumper case for 65 cents. Gotta love China.
 
I will never buy Apple accessories unless its something I cant get anywhere else.

That said....I buy from Ebay mostly.
