Saw a clear effect of tariffs in the order for work today

![img](nrku902369hf1 "The stocks of vendors that prepared for tariffs earlier this year are finally starting to run out.")

Needed a steel punch for work old price is around $8, a common tool that used to ship overnight. You can see that less popular sizes are still in stock and are still at that price range, but as they sell out, two things are happening:

\-They are double the original price  
\-Amazon vendor is not restocking them in US, adding 1 month ship-time + $9 shipping cost.

The item that would cost me $8 now costs me $25... **210% increase**

Is it me or when the cost increases for all sorts of widgets, tools, and parts propagate across the economy this fall, things are going to get very weird?
