Samw happened to me on Thursday. I was (figuratively) shocked when I bought the capacitor, though. I bought the same one for another unit back in 2021 and it was $11. This one was $32. Same brand. Same supplier. It felt criminal but it was better than hiring it out and being put on a two-week waiting list!

$23 for a single headlight bulb for my 20 year old car the other day. 6 years ago it was $15 for a 2-pack.
