Black Gate Ceasing Production

I don't know if this has been mentioned, but I just came across this news. [click the text for source]


Some of you may be aware of the news that Black Gate production will soon be coming to a close in Japan. This is a result of the company that makes them under license from the inventors, giving notice. Therefore, we would advise people to stock up on values required for future projects asap as the prices will surely rise. Hificollective will be investing heavily in Black Gate stock. We will keep you posted on any updates

 

Wit BG going maybe Chris Venhaus caps will get the respect they deserve then

 

bg will make caps only in the u.s. see site.nando

 

This is second time they've announced this in as many years.

Is it really going to happen this time or is it just yet another attempt to sell through scare tactics?

There's cheaper alternatives from the likes of Vishay, Elna etc. on the market now anyway, so no real loss.
