I had a mixture of DS and SS and had to ship to Australia so it worked out 
about $8 a disk in the end but I have three machines that use 8" floppies so I 
stocked up while I could.

Don't quote me but I think he bought all the inventory of a company that was 
(past tense) making them so there is a limited supply so as the supply dwindles 
I expect the price will rise - again don't quote me on this.

Recommend you check out their web site but the service I got from Tom was 
excellent - he was very helpful.
