Especially given that you can't escape from the grocery store in 2022 without dropping a mortgage payment for a couple weeks' supplies. And heavens ... the gas station.

I suspect inflation is taking a bite out of sales for many producers.
I paid $1600.00 for the original issue of this kit and have seen other diehard kit collectors who only want an original issue of this kit pay between $1800.00 and $2300.00 for it.
