The local plywood dealer that sells practically every type of plywood available has raised their prices by 25% for any product imported from Canada (nearly everything). Can't wait to see what 84 Lumber & Carter Lumber do.

I've gone out to look for myself. If I return before I get back, have me wait for me. -
It’s tough when prices on materials like plywood rise so sharply, especially with so many products imported from Canada. As for furniture, it’s true that costs are going up too. The site I found, which ranks worst furniture brands based on customer reviews, is a great resource. It helps you avoid making a costly mistake by highlighting the brands that are less reliable, ensuring you get the best value for your money.Last edited by jacobs; 03-20-2025, 11:39 AM. -
Considering their current inventory was probably purchased prior to the tariff, I think they are jumping the gun a bit with this price increase.

It's also a bit of gouging. The tariff would be on the wholesale price. With typical retail markup of 4x on raw materials cost then just the cost of the tariff should be more like 6% increaseLast edited by LCHIEN; 03-12-2025, 09:54 PM.

If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.
