Mine was free (not even postage!). Either contact your local distributor for your country or email CW direct.

Don't pay that. Ask CW directly what their policy is as that sounds like a ridiculous amount of money. i wouldn't pay more than a fiver.

The STDM cable is FREE, CW says it's free, and any store that says it costs 15£ + 6£ p&p is sticking all that money in their OWN pocket (and CW gets nothing).
My dealer sendt me a whole bunch for free the last time I asked.. I still have 3 I dont need at the moment

That's really shocking... as if £15 for the cable wasn't bad enough, they then charge £6 for postage for such a light item! Amazing.
I'm sure that kind of thing is not allowed in their dealership agreement.
peace

Yes, this probably needs reporting to CreamWare. oioi, when you mail CW for a free STDM cable make sure you explain the dolphin scenario - robbers. i'm ashamed to see they're British too
