That's nothing new Rick. The same thing can be found in grocery stores. Say a 16ct box of large freezer bags, VS a 32 ct box....Buying two of the 16ct is cheaper than the 32 count, and it's common to a lot of products. Are you just noticing that kind of thing? Or are you just padding the post and thread start count?

I once had a discussion with a manger of Lowe's about ladders. They had two 4' ladders and two 6' ladders (225lb and 250lb rating in each size) that were all the same price. Why would anybody buy the lighter duty ladder for the same price as the heavier? He didn't really have an answer other than that's what corporate told them to price them at. I just wanted a 4' ladder and felt like I was getting jipped because I was paying the same price as the 6' ladder AR15L wrote: And what's wrong adding to my post count?

To top it off, with inflation being as high as it is does anyone actually think that the prices are going to come down even close to where they were before this whole shit storm started?

What? And lose all those fat profits? Quote: Glencore, the world's largest coal shipper, generated record profits in the first half of 2022 and plans to pay out an additional $4.5 billion in dividends and buybacks to shareholders. The combined profits of the largest energy companies in the first quarter of this year are close to $100 billion.Aug 8, 2022 Quote: Exxon and Chevron Report Record Profits on High Oil and Gas Prices Quote: July 29, 2022
Exxon Mobil and Chevron, the two largest energy companies in the United States, said on Friday that profits rose to record levels in the second quarter as they continued to reap the benefits of soaring oil and gas prices.
Exxon reported income of $17.9 billion for the three months through June, more than three times what it earned in the same quarter a year ago. Revenue at the energy giant jumped to $115.6 billion, from $67.7 billion a year ago. Chevron’s performance was similar, with profit more than tripling to $11.6 billion as sales rose to $65 billion, compared with $36 billion a year ago.
