I went to Home Desperate today to pickup up some ply, some mdf and
hardboard.

I needed the ply for my case work. it was priced reasonably.

The MDF ... OMG to coin the kids phrase... Last year I paid 19 for MDF.
It is now $29.90... What the hey. I wanted to make a sound enclosure so I
wanted the density of MDF. The sanded pine 23/32 was only $24.. Why did
MDF skyrocket? It's crap sawdust that's glued together



Usually, if the price difference is big, the quality will not be the same.
I think they are two different quality .
Please check the quality factors and specifications for MDF, which are
helpful for you to check whether they are the same quality:
Wood species;
Formaldehyde emission class;
Glue type;
Rates of moisture proof;
Color of MDF (usually dark color MDF is cheaper);
Density;
Thickness & size.
