I think that it's probably a fair assessment that we all hoard up spare parts to a point, but I am wondering if this is going to create a seismic shift in the cost of this hobby.
I am also wondering if I should start ordering parts for my car(s) that I won't need for some time, and order service parts for years down the road.
