Anyone else notice Mazdatrix prices?
They seem to fluctuate wildy.
For example, before Christmas, the 89-92 idiot light bezel was $57. After Christmas it jumped to $167. My wife informed me yesterday she bought me one for my birthday and it was only "50 bucks". I didn't believe her so I went and looked, sure enough, $42!
I know I am basing my claim on one part, but what the heck would cause such a large swing in price?

the best example is a rotor housing, Mazda casts these in house, so the cheapest place to buy them is wholesale in Japan, in fact there is a place in Japan that will sell you all 5 housings with the same production batch for high hp builds.
in the past any aftermarket stuff, particularly brake and clutch hydraulics was terrible, but in 2016, the chinese stuff is actually ok, and its almost free its so cheap
