I got quoted $4K, $6K, and $8K for the same enterprise SSD part in three different quotes within about a week. (I normally expect this part to be $1.5-2.5K.) In one case, a storage array with two SSDs in it cost approximately the same as buying those two SSDs standalone.

When it comes to server RAM, I got quoted double a previous quote within the span of a week.

Buying servers is basically quote roulette now.
