Why the cost increase?


I went to buy materials for a speaker project. I also priced some T-111 siding on 8" centers, 5/8 thick, Ship lap.
I hadn’t picked up any sheets or anything in over 18 months.

48" x 96 x 5/8 wood siding was 19-26.00 and on sale 15-20.00 per sheet, NOW 74-84.00 per sheet.

MDF 3/4" 48 x 96" if you can find it. 45-55.00 per sheet it was 22.00 to 27.00 per sheet.

2x4x8 DF stud grade 1.99-3.00 per. Now 4-6.00 per stud,

There is no shortage but there sure is a LOT of price gouging. NOTHING changed. Just the price..

The quality is worse. The workers aren’t paid worth a crap...Why the increase?

I’m getting ready to finish my home out. WOW.. I might have to rethink this a bit..

The price all most tripled in 12-18 months.. This kind of stuff is NOT cool at ALL.

Just my opinion of course. Any projects you’re doing get put on hold or STOPED?

YES I’m very frugal. Money never came easy, and it leaves the same way..

Who's lying?
Also with Joe letting all those infected people invading the southern borders in, it will get worse as they are relocated all over the US.
Your words, skypunk'd. You forgot to delete before you lied, again.
I just happen to read real news and those that are in, or who are to get in, get vaccinated. Just ask anyone in Texas, besides yourself.

You've never been really good at this, so do us all a favor and jump in your pool and dream one day of seceding from the union. That should make you happy.

All the best,

Mr @nonoise you are a doing such a wonderful job of disinformation and being such a wonderful job as a propagandist for the Xi-Biden Administrations.

So when Joe is catching and releasing how are 90% how would the know that 90% are vaccinated and screened when CBP is not screening them because they crossed illegally? (Rhetorical) Could care less what your lying answer is.  

Thought you would like just a little truth and facts to sprinkle in your lies and propaganda. Mr All Noise

And I am using DATA from your lovely propaganda agencies in the MSM.

Now I am done with your BS @nonoise.


I find it terribly depressing when I realize that there are still so many people who actually believe that the world is round.
And here we go...
The first link describes what everyone knows. People trying to get in and being turned back. Those eligible go thru the process. The only mention of Covid is from all the CBP personal who got infected and died from Covid. No mention as to why they didn’t get vaccinated. Is that because they didn’t believe in it? They were very loyal to Rump.

The 2nd link. Apprehensions are up. Duh. We all know that. Rump had them all sitting at the border, refusing to process the claims and left with Biden to hold the bag. Why didn’t you say anything while Rump did that?

The 3rd link. Under Rump, in 2020, there were only 15,000 waiting to get in. His screw up amounted to over 117,000 waiting. Thanks for pointing out what a horrible president he was.

The 4th link. Sorry, it has a paywall so I can’t comment.

The 5th link. You posted the 4th link twice.

You need steadier hands. Don’t fly for awhile.

All the best,
Nonoise
