I know a lot of you will say I should go to/support the LBS but when they want £5+ for something that I can get on ebay for 99p and free postage
If you do support your LBS they won't normally charge you for a brake cable, at least if they're a decent LBS. Although a decent LBS probably wouldn't charge £5 for a brake cable either...
As much as I hate it, ebay is indispensable for things like single inner cables.

On a related note, if you're looking for things to fill up your basket on CRC, they often have bmx brake cables for a quid or two, full length inner cable plus heaps of compressionless outer for less than lbs want for an inner.
