They took another pretty big price jump today. $321.75 per 5000 plus shipping and hazmat.

That's a double in price in the last two years, correct?

Price doesn't mean much when they are out of stock. They were much lowere than that a couple of months ago when they had them. I sometimes think that is part of the game; raise the posted price when you have them, let demand and nervousness build and then declare a sale at a lower price when you have them.

That’s $20@1000 increase in the last six or so weeks !

We do have some control by refusing to buy. If all of us did not panic buy then the price would reflect the lack of demand. There is an adage i learned as a young contractor that if you get every job you price you are too low. One of every three and you're about right. I asked myself what i would do in their position and the answer is raise the price until i found resistance then drop until the item was hard to keep in stock.

I just got 5K in at the "old" price. With freight and Hazmat under $300 AND glad to have'em.
