All manufacturers have increased pricing on virtualy all parts with the recent Minimum Wage increase.

As well as with the war effort, all raw material has increased as well.

I cannot be for certain that this is the reason why, but im sure this will hold you over until Tom can provide a more technical answer.

War effort, sounds weird hearing that, like I'm in 1942 or something. You're probably right I know Carbon Fiber is hard to come by due to military purchasing.
