Were the PVC inserts always $135/ea.?

I'm glad they're back up and running, but holy cow, that's steep.

They used to be $70 each

by pvc is plastic, plastic is oil, oil went from cheap $ to stupid $$$.

I just priced them with 24 bolt wheels @ $74.95 ea. the wheel/insert combo cost $140 last time I ordered them now it is $165 ea. not TOO bad considering everything has gone up.
A couple years ago they were $49.95 ea

Sounds about right.

it is a fair production cost of 300% of material cost. And I am seeing 10’ sections of pipe for $500. (Or about that)

Assuming you could make 8 inserts out of it cost, time, knowledge puts them about $150-$175 each.
