We sell both. You pay more for good.

Do note the difference. Good vs other is like comparing cold rolled steel to rebar. I think most understand what that means.

I am a little worried this year on price increases.
Yes, there is price increases due to trade wars with USA ...tarriffs on steel
I've asked the supplier to double check his quote for a potential math mistake.
I use 1/16 cable. Four years ago I was using prodyuct that was made in China and it was breaking in the field. MY next order came from "made in USA" and I have had virtually no problems with breakages over the last 3 years. There is a quality difference.
