Yeah its hurting dealers who stock lots of parts at the old prices big time. The distributor should be eating some of that cost for them.

I dont know what they did for the dealers but it definately discourages dealers from stocking parts and that is the exact opposite of what you want
5105H and 6400H in stock

Just check piston prices at my local dealer again. The prices have come down to around $50 per piston.

OFF TOPIC = Art is performance car parts up that way still like 3 times the price compared to here. In the later 80's I used to run car parts up that way across the border and friends would drive a van down sometimes and load it up to save $$$$. 

Say a intake was a $100 here be almost $300 there.  Just wonder if that stuff has evened out now like stihl saws have.

Paid about 50 for a ms460 piston last week.  Intake boot was about $46. Lol
