Changes on the horizon, sources drying up.

Is anyone else concerned about the amount of powder suppliers closing up shop right now? I think it could lead to higher prices and increased scamming down the road.

No, time to create our own powders.

Concerned... a little. But the legit stuff will always be there if you know where to look.

bro, there are so many reputable suppliers, UGLs, that is, that I wouldn't worry about it, I doubt this "problem" will even increase prices a little.

The ones in China will cease and they are the one that had been flooding the market.

Exactly. Increasing prices as well as scamming. Even recently we have seen a few long time reputable guys turn to the dark side.

It will result in smaller powder buyers being told that their supplier is out of business, but the major labs will have no problems.

HomeBrewing will stop for the most part, smaller UGs will go out of business, and the major UGs will be unaffected. Powder will simply go out the back door instead of the front now. No biggie.
