Re-spinning a board, LOL. Dude, there's copper substrate shortage on the market, people have delays getting their already ordered PCBs delivered.

Any details on this? Media/tradejournal links?

I wouldn't have believed you six months ago, but hey, everything's changed. Still, copper-clad board shortages... I mean if that really is for real we're headed back to the stone age real quick. I hope it's just a rumor.

Before berating someone in the industry for “source”, why don’t you try googling it? PCB shortage, ABF shortage, etc.

Scores of recent articles at your fingertips.

... and yet you post no links.

Also: I wasn't berating anybody.
