I just got a quote from acer spare parts in australia for the parts:
cable: 50.GP4N2.004,
bracket: 33.GP4N2.002. 
The parts required to add a secondary hard drive to my Aspire 5 a515-51g laptop.

$50 for the cable
$50 for the bracket
And to top it off, $15 for delivery.

$50 aud is roughly $38 usd

Am i getting fleeced?
Because it feels like it.
$116.50 just for the option to add a second hard drive.

    last year from October through December Newegg had a lot of free after rebate deals for accessories. I got a lot of free after rebate products which included a 2.5 drive bracket and hard drive SATA cables.

    I don't expect you to wait that long. I got paid back for all my rebates but Newegg had a problem with their rebate processor and no longer has a relationship. So I'm not sure if they will even do free after rebate this year.
