^, pclinkshop don't have a good rep...I've considered using them because their SEO is pretty good for odd things but their hellopeter page made me stay away.

PS that msi b450 MB is back in stock at R50 more and there's now also the ASRock B450M-HDV in stock for R1579

That's R170 more than I paid a week ago. And that was already R200 more than it was 2 weeks before that.
Wow I see the RAM has gone up by R50 as well,wootware is having fun with this lockdown.

 

[Lupus]

That's very cheap.

Yup R200 cheaper than what it was at Wootware in March which was the same as Rebeltech.

Guess it is also fun, sourcing stock during the lock down.

Possibly, but man the price increases are getting a bit much, the same build I did last week is now R300 more.

We are in the Food Service sector, and sourcing stuff is difficult, manufacturer's are not producing the volumes, and transportation is not as easy as it was previously. So it goes.

Wootware is coining it. I bought a mouse this morning for R1499, checked now and the price is already adjusted to R1599. Same mouse was R1399 a week ago.

Greedy fscks!

They got to pay couriers, and others, like us, not just them putting prices up, you just see theirs go up, happens all along the chain.

33% increase - the R tanking during that time will probably account for most of that

Yep, that as well, why those who owe me money, must pay as quick as possible, so I can pay as cheap as possible for at least my PC build.

Yea look, I get it. Everything is getting more expensive, I just feel like WW is really all over the place with their price changes - doesn't feel natural.

Anyway I've edited my comment and removed the unnecessary name calling

Yeah, it happens mate, like I said, you where, just looking at Woot Ware, who are on the end of the chain. That chain is long. All the way from China. Every one adds on their 20 cents, and then pay in Rands. End result is rough.

Wait and see what their prices get updated to, when they bring in new stock. When they can start trading again.

Yeah can't justify a R500 increase in 2 weeks that's ridiculous, even with the exchange rate, there's no way they bought new stock in.

Air France alone is bring 4x 747-400 cargo carriers in a week, harbours are still operating, for freight, so not impossible. Goods are still moving, just not in the volumes and as freely as before.
