Unfortunately, due to the pandemic and other reasons, many goods and materials have doubled in price, or even more. In some places you can still have time to buy something at the "old" prices.
I bought Wago 222 connectors (https://ammo1.livejournal.com/1222817.html). Wago 221 did not take - they were much more expensive.
Now there 2-pin Wago 222-412 cost 322 rubles for 20 pieces (16.1 rubles. per piece), 3-pin Wago 222-413 cost 401 rubles for 20 pieces (20.05 rubles. per piece), 5-pin Wago 222-415 cost 93 rubles for 5 pieces (18.6 rubles. a piece).
In three well-known electrical companies, prices are significantly higher:
VDL.
Electrical installation.
ETM.
I mostly use these connectors for other purposes. They are very convenient for prototyping simple circuits, connecting multimeter contacts to wires, temporary connection during measurements (https://ammo1.livejournal.com/32084.html).
And a couple of weeks ago I bought 50 meters of VVG 3x1.5 GOST cable for 38 rubles in the same place.
Only two weeks have passed, and there are no such prices. Today, the minimum price for a VVG 3x1.5 cable in Leroy is 55 rubles per meter when buying a 100-meter bay, 60 rubles when buying a 50-meter bay, and if you buy 5 meters, then such a cable costs as much as 82 rubles per meter.
Moral: prices go up for almost everything. If you are sure that you will need something in the near future and there is an opportunity to buy it at the "old" prices, you should take it.
