Which store is yours? We'll remember it and show you the right details.
Three questions about the thing in your hand, and we'll narrow 119 connectors down to the one it is. Skip anything you're not sure about — it still works, you just end up with two or three to choose between instead of one.
Still could be
119connectors
Answer a question to start narrowing it down.
Send a photo of it straight to your store. Naming mystery connectors is a daily job at the counter, and we can tell you whether the lead you need is on the shelf before you drive in.
Which usually means one of the answers isn't quite right — the shape is the one people most often read differently to us. Change an answer, or skip one and see what's left.

The problem isn't the cost — it's that a photo of the back of a computer has six connectors in it and no way of knowing which one you meant, and a confident wrong answer sends you out to buy the wrong cable. Some of these genuinely cannot be told apart from a photograph at all: the two commonest barrel plugs differ by four tenths of a millimetre, on the inside.
Three questions and a drawing you can hold the plug against gets you there without guessing — and it works with the internet playing up, which is sometimes exactly when you're hunting for a network cable.
