Today I went on Aliexpress for buying some 0805 sized yellow LEDs because my stockpile is almost over, usually they cost about 1$ for 100pcs, now the price is about 6$-7$ ...

After DDR5 going crazy expensive, now LEDs, one have to wonder what happens with semiconductors market?

Since yr in Belgium, did u notice any markup since July 1st ? it's a EU thing

Hi,
As diebobo said, I heard EU had put some sort of charge on every item in a parcel so if you had 2 different colours you would get charged twice.
I have just had a quick look and 0805 yellow £0.55/100 and £2.91 delivery UK.

It could be, I am not really familiar with the EU customs and tax policy ... recently I found out I have to pay VAT of 20c and 12E customs documentation for one order ... ridiculous.
