Is it common for the list/retail price of rods and reels to fluctuate up and down across multiple shops?

Specifically I'm talking about a new release, the new Pflueger Supreme, and the new Fenwick HMG. I had them both in my cart for a week or so, and was just waiting around until I could find some sort of deal, considering I don't really need them until springtime, but just noticed the list price for both has gone up. The Supreme was $110, and is now $120, and the HMG was $100, and is now $120. The prices have also increased at most other retailers.

I still have the old price available to me while they're in my cart, and am now considering just buying at those prices. Any advice?

It's a new year, new prices on supplies, materials, labor =price increases. My advice is if you want them, buy at the old price because they never go down, (except for sales) .

Leave them in your cart! Inflation and supply bottlenecks are most likely the causes.

Happens to just about anything at this point in time. Distribution costs are highly variable.
