Yes, I know they are still out there and in most cases prices are through the roof. IF you are going to need them buy them now.

Our wholesale prices are pretty much where retail was a year or two ago. I'm not sure what is inflation or tariffs but prices keep increasing. Especially parts from Germany like Mahle p&c's.

I've watched normal everyday parts triple over the last decade!
When I opened this business in 2015 a 30lb jug R134 could be bought at Sams Club for $75 and they had a mountain of the stuff. If I can beat 300 now, I'm kicking ass! That is a 400% increase for no good reason... My labor rate started at 100 and has moved up to 160. I'm losing rapidly! The REAL problem is parts quality!!!!! For 3 decades aftermarket parts were fine and sometimes better than OEM. Now EVERYTHING will fail within 1 year unless it's OEM. I give 1-year unlimited mileage warranties and can no longer install aftermarket stuff. I've got a wholesale distributor of OEM compressors... They kick ass but are running out of the OEM stuff. I bought the last OEM Sanden compressor for a 08 CRV from them. I sold it to my customer for $600 and made a profit. No more are available except directly from Honda at $2240! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) The estimate that customer got from Honda for the AC work alone was $8500 and they tried to steer her to a brand new CRV (which is crappier now). This car is worth 9-10K... I did the compressor replacement AND ALL of her needed PMs for 2K and she was ecstatic! I'm going to retire and do something else...

We are well under $200/hr and I’m told that is ridiculously low. When you look at what it cost to turn the lights on each day, the people telling me that are right. And a lot of the people saying it are our customers….
