$900+ for hpfp part only! What the!!!

Why are hpfp $900 now when they were going for $200 before? This looks like price gouging. Where can I get a FAIR price on hpfp? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

like over a year ago they were 250-300.... price spiked about 6 months before they issued extended warranty. I think one of the vendors has found a non mini supply but they're still 600ish

Yeah man, this is madness. Have you ever heard of just the fuel line going bad or leaking? Hoping it's just this because it's only $50. I see white residue at the connection.

A dramatic price increase on a known problem part seems a little suspicious.
