Asians are driving up the price with the ridiculous sorting and picking thru at the sources in their part of the world as well as in the major entry points into the US. Here in the US we get very little that is not common. As far as dats, we are getting the leftovers in the supply chain.. I suggest everybody just stop buying if the price isnt fair, drive the price back down and we can start over. Artificially inflated prices suck. Otherwise just pay the piper and suck it up.
