04 Aero, can't find parts anymore

My mechanic says people are hoarding parts and selling them on EBay at inflated prices. He has had cars he can't fix, because he cannot get even simple, routine parts, not even aftermarket stuff. Bodyshop cant get anything besides salvage stuff, even that has doubled or tripled in price. Jags are cheaper to repair.
I see Eeuro nearly doubled their prices on the DIC from a year and a half ago, and cannot get most of the stuff they used to. Saab goes bankrupt and parts disappear then some show up for 2-3 times the price? Even aftermarket stuff. Mercedes parts are cheap compared to what I am seeing. WTF. All that and our cars are worthless on the market. Just salvage price, maybe better to just part them out right now.
If mine dies roadside I will light her up and toast some marshmallows.
