Just a General Observation...

A PERSON SELLING AN ITEM CAN NOT SELL AN ITEM FOR 1 PENNY MORE THAN A BUYER WILL PAY. The seller can price his item at high as he wants, if he asks more than buyers are willing to pay, his item will never sell. At that point it isn’t part of the market at all..

This is what I’m also trying to say: the definition of what the market will bear. That (glock/ house / sea foam green cooler) is worth what someone will pay. Jack up the perceived value by any means and that becomes market will bear economics.

Mortgage rate spikes will slow new starts and remodels and OSB will decrease in price AS SUPPLY INCREASES while DEMAND decreases.

There wasn’t a shortage of yeti cups, it was a social joiners’ club phenomenon.

There really wasn’t a shortage of housing, it became a hyped up market with a perceived shortage, and everyone jumped on board.

There is not an iPhone shortage, there may be some delays in delivery, but there is t a shortage.

The ammo shortage was created (ok, so that is supply and demand), but now that ammo is more available the prices haven’t gone back down to pre - stupid prices. That’s “what the market will bear”.

You may say the beach front housing market is still on supply and demand, but again, it’s a hyped up phenomenon that has been greatly impacted by “what the market will bear.”

Surely you don’t think there is a shortage of coke and therefore $2 for 16oz is supply and demand.

Don’t look micro economic, look at the root causes. In most instances it is not a real shortage, but a manipulated perception that results in people willing to pay more for the same thing, even if not in scarce supply.

Man. You are so under-informed or have such limited understanding that it is truly mind-boggling.

Wrong. Wow. Please stop. This is just sad. Your mental gymnastics are concerning.

At this point in time: How much is S&D and how much is what the market will bear?


What is responsible for this continued high pricing?

S&D and “what the market will bear” is exactly the same thing. Both phrases are describing free market capitalism. There is zero degrees of difference.

As to what is driving the super high pricing? Super high demand. The buyers. Buyers willing to pay super high pricing for super high quantities of a product. Until there are less people willing to pay highly elevated pricing for OSB, the price will stay high. As demand drops, so will the price. Why would you lower the price when your product is currently selling at a volume several times more than normal, even with elevated pricing?

Not every day you get to see someone argue against something with the very thing they are arguing against.


“I see your point, but disagree and counter with your point.” Seems pretty effective.
