I received word today that all my main magneto parts suppliers have raised there prices on magneto coils buy 30%. I called and was really P oed That they did not tell me this until after the fact. I was given a 2 business day extension to pick some up at the old cost. So I am not trying to sell anything here. I am just trying to tell anyone that was thinking about one or rebuilding there Magneto in the near future try to find a supplier now that will still offer the old price. Or take the increase and mark it off to old tractor restoration. You can email me if you need more info or if YT or your supplier is out of them now. JON

I haven't bought a coil lately but would not imagine there could no more than a lb. or 2 of copper in one. So I could see maybe a couple of bucks for a coil but not 30%, seems like a excuse to raise prices. When copper prices drop, I bet they drop the coil price, what do you think?

Nope I think if copper prices drop they will stay the same or go up even higher. What's the saying Well we have a lot in stock that were made when copper prices were high? I think its stupid. $9.40 Increase in a day how is a small business man supposed to feed his Tractors, I mean Family. JON
