The cost of the RN65 brown .5 watt Dale MF resistors that are very popular with many amp makers and many DIYers jumped in price by about 40% just recently. I was unaware until I needed to replenish my stock on a few values - I thought it was an error.Nope, it's real - a nearly 40% increase. I didn't check any other Vishay products, so I don't know what else may have changed.
Watch out if you are planning/budgeting a project that uses them.
