it just shows that when certain pins are hard to get then the price is often sky high, but if all the people who where importing dmd pins started importing ss pins instead then the price of ss pins would drop and the dmd pins would increase. its the same with a lot of things, items sell for a high price so every man starts selling them then the price drops because the supply is greater than the demand.
don't get me wrong i am not complaining about lots of people importing dmd pins as it keeps the price down for us buyers.
