Even if to just research before buying new or used, check out their site wherein they offer Audioquest Cables for purchase.
I originally came across this years ago when exploring their PWT.

Thanks. I'll read what they have to say.
Though better be wary that glass toslink is stiffer than plastic so sometimes going longer is actually easier to maneuver in close quarters and avoids potential breakage.No different I suppose than some thick speaker or interconnect cable.
If no info available you can sometimes tell the stiffness or workability of a cable just by looking at picture of it especially taking note of how it's coiled for presentation.
Though mostly standard in size, some toslinks have mini ends or end adapters for smaller terminations. Be sure to check in advance your requirements.
Toslink cables are still used in many home theatre systems so that is another factor to consider for how you may use it now or in the future if it doesn't benefit your current audio needs.
Some good cables like DH Labs mentioned by Todd have come up in past PWT discussions on the web.
