Default What happened to lumber imports?

I used to be able to get all kinds of wonderful Argentinian hardwoods at
a local supplier at very reasonable prices. Now he doesn't have _any_.
Woodworkerssource.com used to have a tremendous selection, now they
don't even have samples of most of the species they list. I'm having to
look long and hard and am finding onesey-twosey turning squares and not
great stacks of rough-sawn lumber like I was used to.

Anybody know what has happened? Did some new regulations go into
effect? Has the US somehow managed to **** off the international lumber
market?
