I ordered, among other things, an RCBS LoadMaster Combo scale/dispenser from Midsouth on the 31st of Dec...it was $265. Due to one of the items being on back-order, to take advantage of the "SPECIAL" $5.99 flat rate Shipping, I told them to hold the order till it came in, then Ship. I since got a Whopper of a deal on a used LoadMaster, and called on the 2nd of Jan to cancel the Scale. The price of the LoadMaster had jumped to $305! We must all keep in mind that not only are we paying MUCH higher gas prices but, due to the fact that "stuff" flows down hill and we can not pass this cost on, we are paying for EVERYBODY ELSES gas price increases...
