You never know... Have you ever looked at the WP34S and WP31S calculators? These were designed mostly by two individuals ("Walter" and "Paul", therefore "WP", both forum members at that time) but with much brainstorming (*) and contributions from other members of this forum. A sort of community effort which makes it very special.

Who made it?
Who sold it?
How much was it?

The original cables were supplied by HP. The one I have (somewhere - just did another half hour of digging and among other things found my transparent Ti overhead calculator about which we recently talked in another thread, but not the cable) was sold to me by forum member Gene Wright who was given a box of these cables by HP. As far as I remember he only charged the shipping cost for the cables he sent out.
