A big part of the problem is no one has inventory because manufacturing took a solid shot in the jimmies with covid.
Try getting parts for Milwaukee power tools.............or virtually anything else.
There was a stretch where nothing was being made , and it is going to take a while for things to return to " normal ".
And even then , it is not going to be the normal we remember.
I am not defending any one , and I do see gouging going on now too.
But my new gig ( since December ) has thrown me into that world , and things is tough all over.
No one in the country has the Milwaukee quik lock three wire cords in the nation.........no one.
Except for someone on ebay , who is asking 62.00 for a 25.00 cord.
Someone has them listed on Amazon for 45.00 , and they say " should ship in three to five weeks ".
They might be right , because we are supposed to be getting some next week............we ordered last July.
