Anyone seen a rather large hike in topload prices recently?

Yes I have an account with BCW and regular toploaders are on back order until the end of May I believe. I just ordered a case of 1000 regular toploader that came with penny sleeves for 149.95 . Looks like they upped the price now to 159.95 with no sleeves https://www.ebay.com/itm/Case-of-1000-Ultra-Pro-3x4-Clear-Rigid-Top-Loaders-Free-Shipping/274349125287?hash=item3fe07b6ea7:g:F0cAAOSwOJVept6a

I hope prices will normalize once the Rona stuff has calmed down. If not there may be a shortage for a while. I usually can get them much cheaper if I place an order big enough for free shipping with BCW. I have a wholesale account with them due to the box breaks I do. 

Yes i used to get them for about $62 per case including shipping.  Now that price has more than doubled, if you can find them at all....crazy!!!!

I have thousands that Id love to get rid of.  

All plastics , not just toploads but the snap cases as well , this was before Corona, at the time when there was a suggestion of tariffs on Chinese exports i could get the 25 pack of basic Ultra pro toploads for $2 cdn now just tough to even find, running out of supplies i just placed an order to bcw direct and paypal has decided to put my payment to them in pending mode, i need that shi- to be able to shi-

nows not the time to be fugging around like that PP

3 months ago I could buy a case of ultra pros for $57.00. Now there over $85.00. st my lcs.

I've got 2.5 shoe boxes full of top loaders.

The odd thing about this to me is that all the toploaders, sleeves, team bags, one-touches and such from UP and BCW are made in China, but the pages are made in the USA. But prices are up on ALL of these products on nearly every site you search. Even Walmart jacked up the price on their 60-page packs of 9-pocket pages. And D&A CardWorld is out of everything UltraPro except some cardboard crap for some TCG product. It's ridiculous! Good thing for me that I only need 9-pocket pages. I have bunches of all the other stuff.

I have almost 5,000 top loaders that I would love to get rid of.  Any takers, just let me know and hopefully we can work something out.

What condition?
