Componet prices

Haven't really needed to buy much of anything over the past few months, which is strange for me. Went looking for some odds and ends on the 'net and noticed brass, and to a lesser degree bullets, went up ~30% in some places from what I remember. May need to stock up, this doesn't look good in the long run. Anyone else notice this?

Cobra, yes I noticed, and some are 'out of stock' -- heard commodities for metals was up so guess you know the story, consumer pays. I'm pretty well stocked, may need to hurry and get another order in though, Waidmannsheil, Dom.

Did notice a lot of 'out of stock' with newly posted higher prices. They're sitting on them for a bit, no doubt. Seems it may be time to see who cares more about lining their pockets in the short term and who's looking to keep a loyal customer base. Glad I really don't need anything for now. I know prices will go up and down over time, always do, it just seemed rather quick, excessive and suspicious.

I was talking to a couple of friends last night. Someone told them June 6th was suppose to be a big raise in ammo prices. I asked why June 6th, and they didn't know. Whether this is just a rumor or what, I don't know. Something to do with the price of copper and brass. Who knows, I guess we will know in a few weeks.
