The logical next question is “where can I get non PG materials?” Check out #1a:

PG is absolutely worth the price if having it pre-finished/pre-masked is worth it for you, if you’re wiling/able to do all the sanding and finishing you can definitely get better deals elsewhere.

I can understand the increase in material costs (NOT REALLY) as everyone in every industry is blaming the pandemic for 100% to 300% price increases and taking advantage of consumers. I don’t get the Shipping increase or a blanket shipping cost. I went to order a new print head lens for $75 and that cost is what it is. But $25 to ship something the size and weight of a nickel is crazy. I can ship 3 lbs for $25.

This is the part I am talking about… these costs are over the top… then a piece of plywood goes from $16 to $31… thats almost double… its no way … its really gross and I doubt I will buy again… this is to slow down the buying but robbing us at the same time… wow!

I wasn’t aware of their prices before… I usually just order from Home Depot and get a 10 pack… but the finished was nice for certain things… but at this price I don’t think so…

That is the nice thing. You can order if you want or use another non proofgrade product. There are things that i really like the proofgrade for.
