Price gouging on Amazon.com

Hopefully, I won't need any more props as I still have the original 6 also.

Yeah, I'm afraid the increase in domestic and foreign goods is just the beginning of this nightmare.

Glad I'm not looking to start a career or raise a family during these times.

Time will tell. Consider the past. Most generations have "hard" times. Maybe more so now with our needs vs. essentials. Like starting a family or purchasing a 1st home or any consumer goods on credit in the 80's.. IIRC, oil embargo gas prices in the early '80s. Interest rates double digit by the end of the decade. The good was even local bank were yielding double digit rates on short term CDs. Paid off ahead of schedule my student loans in '83. Not bright. National Direct and National Health Professional loans at less than 5%. Really not smart by '84. My junker car sort of blew up. IIRC, 13% for a new car loan. Only a one year loan. But ouch.

Regarding price gouging. Considering a land plane (aka grader scraper) for the tractor to maintain the gravel driveway. Should have purchased last April. $1420. End of May $1590. Made in the USA. Must be made of steel from China or EU or Canada or....just opportunity to increase the profit margins.
