Cost of buying Cat6 data cable

I have been looking at the cost of bulk cat6 cable. Seems that is costs about $250+ for 305m locally. Is there any reason I cannot buy it from the US for ~$92 plus shipping. See link below. Does cable need to be accredited by Aust authorities to be 'legally' laid?

I would propose to have my cable person install the cable.

Looks like a good way to save a couple of hundred dollars.

I got a great price here, based in Riverstone, Sydney:

The cable has AS/ACIF S008:2001 printed on it.

That's a good site Craigology!

I'm exclusivly using Krone Cat6 now days.. due to their cable reels being awesome and easy to use

So Pugs if I understand this correctly, You use Krone cables because it easier to lay and the reels in the 305m boxes are easy to use.
So in other words all Cable 6 brands are around the same quality?>
Thanks

no Krone is actually the cheapest compared to other brands from certain suppliers add the ease of use for (professionals) to use it.. it wins.. other brands are all on "spec" but then it coems down to the how the cable is boxed up

Having looked around a bit more, you can buy a 305m box of cat6 cable for ~$150.

could try www.4cabling.com.au its 115 ex gst

the rest of their stuff is fairly cheap compared to everywhere else and it is all a-tick compliant.

Just remember you get what you pay for.
I've had to walk from a couple of jobs now where people want me to install cheap ******* Chinese junk after problems I've had on previous jobs I wont touch it.

Thanks Pugs for yr last reply and others I will have a look at 4cabling Web site.
