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..

Leave it for skypunk’d to exit with insults, perjoratives and provably false statements like this one:
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.
Turns out that vaccination rates among immigrants are at around 90% (it’s conditional for entry) compared to the average Texan, which is around 43%.

But, by all means, do go gentle into that good night and stick to audio, if you can.

All the best,
Nonoise

Who's lying?

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,
Nonoise

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.
