Why'd they do this to us?

I bought these from Oreilly's during covid for:
NGK NGK Resistor Cap | NGK 8744 | Qty: 3 $3.29

even gave an extra away to the lad who bought my old BV. Now I break an OE one ('13, old as EFF), found out Napa/Oreilly/Rockauto have all stopped carrying this... and they're $14 from ebay vultures!?!?
