    Nope, nope, and nope. Finished steel consumer retail products will never come down in price because of low to no steel scrap prices because most of the money for the product is tied up in labor of the manufacturing company and what the retailers get. And the retailers costs of doing business haven't gone down. Gasoline here in the States is down to around $2 or a little above in a lot of places so that should mean diesel has come down as well (although typically doesn't fall as fast as gas). Has anyone seen retail costs of consumer products drop because of lower transportation costs?? Doubtful. Lots of games are played on how things are priced. Buyer always beware...
