This is a tangential anecdote for inflation though, it's supply and demand here. They have a limited number so they are going to charge as much as they can for the limited stock they have.
When was that?

It was consistently in-stock at the Covina, CA IKEA around when the price jumped to $259. At least it seemed to be whenever I checked, but once it jumped to $279 I resigned to just pick up a used one eventually instead when I get back to CA.
Are you saying IKEA is still struggling to get stuff in stock today? I was under the impression that's largely behind us now.
