The market will change, threads like this make me think it already is. The cream will rise from the new crowd of builders and/or current builders will evolve and equalize or lower pricing as they add plugs to the market and demand decreases. Imagine if Gibbs stepped up their hardware and didn't change their pricing. On top of that the people who got into surf casting because it was all the rage and bought hundreds or thousands in plugs will be dumping their stuff. Prepare to score when that starts happening...
