    Just got notice that the load of leather that I cut my pads from will be priced the same as the last two loads per pound!

    I can t remember when the last time that happened.

    It will be interesting to see what the trucking will be from Texas.Last month the load of 180 cc tips was up $100.00 for the same load a year ago from the same place, and fuel was down.

    Fuel is down a little but most other things associated with transportation are still high.

    I think everyone is hedging the bets of Iranian oil coming back on the market. Fuel here has dropped as well.

    our gas was down to $2.34, then they decided to "do Maintenance" on our nearest refinery so gas is back to $3.29 today. you would almost think the oil companies were a bunch of shoers?

    For the first time in almost 20 years diesel is cheaper than gas at the pump - at least here in southwest Florida.

    Diesel had been significantly cheaper than gas here until about 7-8 years ago then it went through the roof, even higher than high test. Now it's down to about the same cost as mid grade.
