Holy price increase Batman - McLeod style

[hunt2elk]

Bought a McLeod 6911-05 18 spline twin disc setup 2 years ago for $451.14 from Summit. Today they are $785.00. I know absolutely everything has gone up in price the last 2 years, but that is a 75% increase.

If I knew what one was I might be excited about it, too.

My garbage bill went from $54.11 to $62 a month! A 15% increase. Absolutely ridiculous!

Yeah, we've all felt the sting of 'inflation' the last year or two...but that's just plain mean!

Well....the price of a pound of butter has doubled here in the last year....and we make the damn stuff.

Cheese is through the roof also.

Compared to the Centerforce twin disc, that’s still a bargain( 1600$!!)

Yikes, maybe McLeod saw what CenterForce gets for theirs and decided they had room to jack the price up.

Cheese hasn't gone up much here. Probably because we have a cheese making joint 1/2 mile away. Fresh curds every Wednesday and Saturday.

Here's one for ya.. Have you priced Almonds lately... about double what they were last year... My buddy has an almond orchard, his costs have skyrocketed... But the price he gets paid per lb has gone down about 30%... WTH...

The only thing not going up in this bullshit post-kung flu world is peoples' paychecks....

A lot is from the inflation and cost of rising fuel but most is now from pure GREED ! 3 of the 5 large manufacturers of engineered lumber such as plywood and OSB had all time record profits, their stocks went thru the roof.
