but as mentioned in the original post - supply for lots of stuff is a huge issue already. i see it often in my industry.... shirts, caps, jackets, track suits, hoodies, bags, etc - all very limited stock.
I'm about to get hit by a huge bill, I'm sure. I have an order being manufactured in China that is just about done. Usually costs $5k to bring it over. Last time was $7500. This time could be bruuuuutal.
