I am buying some fresh from the mill steel from a major supplier thru my workplace , along with a large order. My question is if anyone knows of a worldwide shortage of 1/2" 1144 stressproof! I was quoted $2.00 per ft. for 3/4" $5.30 per ft for 1 inch and $16.25 per ft for 1/2" I am hoping this was just a typo but maybe the price of steel has gone up 800% PS this is all new production as it has to be ordered in, not new old stock. PS being in Canada I am getting used to buying one piece of steel an paying for the whole shipment LOL. Was quoted for a 1' piece of 3/4" x 2"x1' 1018 CRS $47.00 per ft.
