Being shipped to their favorite currency...China's. Destroying the purchasing power of the currency is an act of war.

Re: WTF....Plywood shortage?!?!?!
I am a manager in Supply Chain for a fairly large home improvement company.

Here is what I am suffering from and as good as an explanation I can give you.


All pressure treated lumber is a scarcity.

This is probably the biggest one.

Now here is the reason, before everyone gets freaked out.


It is quite simple:

People are taking most if not all of their disposable income and putting it back into their houses.

No travel, no luxury items. Just Fixing their equity.

We have never been busier.



Pool guys. Swamped
Deck Guys. Swamped
Fence Guys. Swamped
Pad guys. Swamped
Basement reno. Swamped
The list goes on and on.

You think its hard to get materials ? Trying finding labour to do it.

Nothing to panic about except for people just hunkering down.

There is a shortage of construction materials, because...wait for it....there is an increase in construction!

It will fix itself. Just give it some time.

Just look at the riots...there's where all the plywood went: covering broken windows.
 Quoting: phillk6751


That is possible! There must be a window glass shortage, too, as I had to wait the better part of two months for glass to come in to replace what was broken out in my shop during the first round of floyd riots.

I live in the northwest and home depot and lowes are out of plywood. Contractor can get it from another supplier but its 4 bucks more per sheet. Boise isn't far away and they are the distributor...out of plywood. What the actual fuck!

I couldn’t get a 3M premium air filter for my HVAC system from Lowe’s. They said I could order it but couldn’t give a timeline of when it would be in. Said it could be months. So I downgraded to whatever they had in stock

Also noticed Sams Club isn’t even stocking their top shelves anymore. It’s looking more and more barren
 Quoting: Eleventruths


We have stock at my local ACE hardware but its almost $20 for one of those premium filters.

I just took out my old filter and vacuumed out the dust/dog hair/crap and reused it.

Go ahead and try to get a major appliance or air conditioner for your house.

Our dependence on China has paid dividends to those PLA assholes. They are basically holding our country and its economy hostage through export stop shortages and tariffs. I expect something serious to happen by wintertime between our countries. I do not want to say the "W" word but it is looking more like it.

Check out Uneducated Economist on the tube, he regularly has updates on the lumber shortages. As of this time of year versus last year we are down a billion board feet in North America.

Since this COVID-19 hoax was planned, so was the "scarcity" that you are taking about.

If people are foolishly putting their money into their homes instead of the things that they will actually need to survive like food, clothing, some sort of solar power for when the electricity fails, etc, so be it.

Home improvements should be low on the list for most people and since most people have lost income as a result of the COVID hoax, I doubt your explanation of why there is a scarcity.

Food scarcity has been manipulated by closing food processing facilities along with chemtrailing and weather warfare that is destroying farming.

It's not hard to figure these things out.

I replied on this thread:

Thread: Supply chain issues from an insider.

to say I asked DH if he is seeing any supply issues in his industry (plumbing and mechanical). He said actually, yes. His wholesaler is quite under-stocked and he overheard one of the employees say something about supply issues from China.

Don't forget to blame the EPA for restricting the US's ability to make and use things like the glue that is used to put plywood together. Places like China have no EPA to worry about, hence why they get so much business.

That would explain why I keep seeing people driving down the road with their trucks full of it. Hoarding.
Well, there was a tropical storm so im sure much of it was shipped to those states first to replenish complete sell out. Plus construction cleaning the mess.

Found a ton of bikes for cheap at the pawn shop down the road tho.
